The problem is that since I have connected to remote server, from right panel, how do I bring it back up or appear when I see right window is displaying again the local file system. Do I need to type in the command line again to reconncet to remote server? As you mention below timeout is 900 sec.

Remote login or local > login ? What is the value of the environment variable "TERM" ? I use remote putty login to connect to my distance server. With same putty, I connect to another server and broders display correctly. Can seem to find TERM in putty.
