Re: [Fab-user] Basic questoins
Sorry, i don't know of one. I actually haven't used CopSSh lately, and I don't have 64-bit windows in use anywhere at the moment, so I haven't really looked. CopSSH is basically just a nicely packaged OpenSSH with some add-ons though, so if you can get OpenSSH built for your platform, it should work too.

Re: [Fab-user] Basic questoins
HI Jeff, I believe that's the issue I have. Is there any instructions on how to compile and deploy 64-bit winrandom? We do have 64-bit Win systems around with VS installed, what source do I need to build the 64-bit winrandom? Is the output a .dll or .lib (and any other files?)? Once I have it compiled, where shold I put it for crypto or fabric?
