RE: OpenSSH (Windows XP and 2k3) Problem

Mike...
 
I apologize for the lack of details, but hopefully this response will get
you pointed in the right direction.
 
This is a KI with OpenSSH. There are several threads on this issue a few
years ago. I am sorry that my fatigue and lack of memory isn't providing
more information. However as I recall there is a limited workaround.
 
The applications aren't 'freezing' they are just unable to 'print' their
output back to the command line.
 
Hopefully you can find the original threads or someone with a better memory
can answer this for you.
 
The CopSSH may have corrected the problem ...
 
gl,

Subject: OpenSSH (Windows XP and 2k3) Problem

Hello!
 
I seem to be having an issue with OpenSSH for Windows. I have it installed
and it is working on both my Windows XP machine and Windows 2k3 Server
machine. I can access both perfectly from any ssh client. However, the
problem I am having is when I try to exectue a program on the command line
which requires user input, such as ftp, sftp, or bsflite (a shell-based
aim). Basically, what happens is the program I want to use is executed, then
asks for an initial set of input. I type in the input, press enter, and then
it just hangs. Nothing happens.
 
Commands such as ping, ipconfig, etc. work just fine. It's just the ones
that require user input that seem to "freeze". Also, all of these programs
(sftp, ftp, and bsflite) work perfectly from the local command line and also
via telnet (which I am trying to phase out).
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
Thanks,
 
Mike Del Pozzo
