PuTTY Fatal Error

Server sent disconnect message
type 2 (SSH_DISCONNECT_PROTOCOL_ERROR):
"fork failed: Resource temporarily unavailable"It means that the SSH daemon running on that particular machine
can't find free resources (memory, number of processes, number
of open files, etc.) to fork off another instance that will be
handling your session. You should probably have your sysadmins
have a look at the machine. Have them identify which resource
is in shortage and either increase the allowed number for that
particular one, or reduce the number of already running processes
using it. They should also have some sort of out-of-band access
in case this isn't a temporary problem and noone can access the
machine anymore.
