CUDA over SSH is working the magic for our team. Cool!!!
But we had to have atleast one RealVNC session connected dummy to get CUDA programs working correctly. (I think the driver is NOT loaded if VNC is not connected). This peculiar behaviour could be specific to our peculiar setup.
I encountered a problem with SSH, which I want to share with my al-cuda brethren.
After I started the SSH service on the server (net start sshd), a few members of our team were able to access the machine via SSH and for few others we got a message “Server Unexpectedly closed connection”
An inspection of event log (in XP, event viewer is in control panel → administrative tools → event viewer. According to microsoft site, it exists in “Control panel → Performance and maintenance → Administrative tools → event viewer”. ) showed that the SSHD was not able to resolve DNS for some IPs. The “useDNS” option in sshd_config does NOT prevent SSHD from making DNS lookups. An entry in /etc/hosts helped in this case. fyi.
