As expected, after I plugged out the Ethernet cable for a few seconds and plugged in again: debug1: channel_free: channel 0: client-session, nchannels 1 debug1: fd 2 clearing O_NONBLOCK Read from remote host loria.loria.fr: Connection reset by peer Connection to loria.loria.fr closed. debug1: Transferred: stdin 0, stdout 0, stderr 102 bytes in 301.6 seconds debug1: Bytes per second: stdin 0.0, stdout 0.0, stderr 0.3 debug1: Exit status -1 -- Vincent Lef�vre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International des Jeux Math�matiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
