RE: OpenSSH (Windows XP and 2k3) Problem

Is it possible to use an I/O redirector when running the commands?

Thank you for the quick reply!!! That is exactly what is
happening...apparently many win32 console applications don't print to
the stdout, rather to the "console". I just tried out CopSSH and
unfortuantly got the same results :-( If anyone could remember how to
fix this problem it would be greatly appreciated!

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,

        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
