It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

Putty is using a different keymap than your remote server expects. I don't think you can fix it per-se... as it's working as designed. The question is, how do you implement keyboard keys that are handled by the underlying OS on a remote machine which may function differently? You'll find that nearly all (if not all) ssh clients have variations on how keyboard inputs are translated over the wire and how the remote host understands them. There might be a way to assign a different character map to putty... but I find this is more work than it's worth. Many times different applications behave differently with regard to the keymaps. (i.e. in nano & vi... the insert key behaves one way... in the shell completely differently) Your best bet, is to find another way to accomplish the same task without using the insert key. | |||||
