Hi,

It was fixed after doing the following setup :

Open control panel=3D> Administrative Tools=3D>Computer Management=3D>Servi=
ces,
lookup the sshd service, right click=3D>properties=3D>log on, and check the
checkbox for =E2=80=9CAllow service to interact with desktop=E2=80=9D, and =
restart the
service.

thanks
Saravana
