You can get the absolute pathname of your executable on Win32 using:
<available property="ssh.exe" file="ssh.exe" filepath="${env.Path}" />
and use ${ssh.exe} thereafter. --DD

Yes, you must be right I guess. But then another flag would be needed or
it should behave differently under Windows.
Anyhow, the exec task is broken under Windows.

because many people run things on the path; if I exec 'ssh.exe' I just
need a copy of SSH on the path, not one at .\ssh.exe
