Each "fossil" command both reads from standard input and writes to standard output, in order to transfer information. Thus the commands and the content travel over the same pipe. This works OK for the systems where I have tested it, but for some reason does not work on OpenBSD. And alternative implementation would be to issue a single "fossil server" command over SSH and then tunnel the traffic using the "-P" option to SSH. The trouble with the alternative approach is that we would have to guess at a TCP port that is available on both client and server before setting up the connection, and if we guess wrong the connection will fail. Other suggestions about how to transfer content via SSH are welcomed. > > How can I get more debug to see what's going on? > > Thanks, > -Martin > _______________________________________________ > fossil-users mailing list > fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org > http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users > -- D.
