The problem (likely) is that ssh logs in as the SYSTEM (or equivalent) user that doesn't have permission to run vss.exe. I get around that by using a recursion script to escalate privileges via 'at'. I imagine perhaps that winexe allows for direct launching of vss.ex. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master SQL Server Development, Administration, T-SQL, SSAS, SSIS, SSRS and more.
