I tried this on four different computers and was unable to duplicate the problem. I also asked Corinna to try it out and she was unable to duplicate it either. I assume that ssh-agent is disappearing after the first ssh connection attempt. Can you use "strace -ofoo -p <pid>" to attach to the ssh-agent prior to the first ssh `hostname` and send the output here? cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
