Thanks all for the comments. It turns out that, by info discovered via using bash --help and then `bash -c help set', I could simply add `-o igncr' to the login command line in the cygwin.bat file. That's a lot simpler than using d2u or introducing another editor. Richard Haney --- On Thu,

Hi, I followed directions (/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README) as best I could, helped out by a couple of other web sources along the way. I know almost nothing about Windows administration. Trying to connect with PuTTY gives a server unexpectedly closed connectin error. Here is

Another lftp issue

2009-06-26 Thread Chris Sutcliffe
After making an sftp connection via lftp, doing a 'cls -ltr' causes a core dump. I've compiled lftp 3.7.14 using Cygwin 1.7.0-50 using gcc-4 / g++-4 and it doesn't cause the same core dump. Perhaps a new version of lftp (at least for 1.7.0) is in order? Chris -- Chris Sutcliffe

It finally turned out to be that /etc/hosts.deny was too restrictive: ALL:ALL EXCEPT localhost:DENY I ran ssh-host-config, but did not run ssh-user-config. Must have overlooked that step. Perhaps that would have taken care of it? Thanks, Chap On Jun 26, 2009, at 9:17 PM, David
