I tried this - as far as the PuTTY apps are concerned, it works great! Yay! (I had a little trouble at the beginning, until I remembered to unset the SSH_PORT environment variable that I had been using.) OK, I am changing my bug report to a bug in the documentation (except for the part about WebDAV, which is a feature request anyway). The extremely helpful information in Pekka's short email needs to be added to the WindowsConfiguration page on the wiki. Shall I give it a whirl? In addition, I think this is important enough for to be mentioned (for all platforms) in the manual, where it says: Getting started... Getting changes made to another repository... Get, pull and push also work over ssh. Ssh-paths are of the same form accepted by scp, namely [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/path/to/repository. I would add something like You can also use: session_name:/path/to/repository where "session_name" is a "Saved Session" defined in PuTTY on Windows, or a virtual host name defined in ssh_config on other platforms. This is the preferred way to customize SSH settings, such as the port number, for Darcs.
