I tried the 2 only and it abended. Then I turned on X11 Forwarding and
it worked. This is the newest level of PUTTY .60 . Thanks everyone for

The choices are 1 only, 1, 2, or 2 only.  The default is 1, not 1 only.
If PuTTY does not try 2 after 1 is rejected it is a bug.

More likely: the default SSHD configuration was changed to permit v2
connections only following a compromise of the v1 protocol. This
happened a while back. PuTTY gets the reject from the v1 attempt, and
doesn't retry with v2. The Unix ssh clients are configured to try v2 if
v1 fails.
