Subject: Extra note on "connection reset by peer" on Windows.
X-Git-Url: https://git.distorted.org.uk/u/mdw/putty/commitdiff_plain/83372d79842f9a9c3debfb7a88456d24bfa34354

Extra note on "connection reset by peer" on Windows.
Note default circumstances of cipher warning. (I haven't bothered with the
similar kex warning since it doesn't come up in the default configuration,
and is in any case unlikely to be common.)
