问题
I have successfully installed git on a windows server 2008 machine and set up ssh.
I have successfully cloned a repository on my developer machine (windows 7), but when I tried to clone it on my laptop (windows 7), it is giving me the error:
unable to open connection. Host does not exist
I can connect to it with putty successfully, and also set the environment variable. I cannot identify what I am missing. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Actually when I tried to clone it was also giving the error in alert box that
The server's host key is not cached in the registry
with option yes or no then I selected Yes then it gave me the error
unable to open connection. Host does not exist
So the solution is saving the host key in registry
Open up cmd and go to path of plink (mine was C:\Program Files (x86)\GitExtensions\PuTTY) and type plink user@whateveryourserver.com
This will prompt you to save the host key in registry , and enter yes, then try your git command again, and it should be working.
