Only if a pseudo-tty is allocated (-t option). But in this case, I get a "Connection to ... closed." message at the end of the connection (and possibly other side effects). I could use the -q option too, though. But this is quite annoying if I want to have them by default. There doesn't seem to be an option for TERM to put in the .ssh/config (and the link between LogLevel and the -q option isn't very clear). -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International des Jeux Mathématiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA
