I'm using PuTTY on my Windows machine to use SSH on my university server. I run analyses that take up to 3 days to complete. I can connect and start the analyses but eventually get an error message 'PuTTY Network Error: Software caused connection abort'. I have problem solved this - the issue lies with the period of inactivity on PuTTY where it is running the analyses. The network connections ect are all fine. At the moment the only way I can get the analyses to complete is to press enter every couple of hours. This really is annoying as I have to get up during the night!
I'm not a computer whizz whatsoever and would really apprentice if anyone could suggest a solution.
Thanks :)
