Not necessarily. It can be the client, too (your PuTTY). You didn't
describe the error message in detail (perhaps it is too unspecific,
GUI clients tend to be like that), but perhaps PuTTY has some
"verbose" option you can activate. Then you may infer whether there's
a hole in the net or whether just client and server don't get along
with each other.
