That is an extremely old version of Windows, if I am reading your screen shot correctly. Is it in the list of supported systems?

The first problem we have encountered is shown on the following pic: <image001.jpg> We have been looking online as there is not that much documentation around so help will be greatly appreciated. This is what we have done so far to install the Windows client: Download the MinGW version of the Globus Toolkit package from the Globus portal at https://downloads.globus.org/toolkit/gt6/stable/installers/windows/ and download the binary zip file globus_toolkit-6.0.1502136246-i686-w64-mingw32-Build-13.zip. Extract the files to a local folder of choice. (Ex: “C:\Program Files”) Add the <Local Folder>\Globus\bin to the system PATH using the steps below. * From the desktop, right click the Computer icon. * Choose Properties from the context menu. * Click the Advanced system settings link. * Click Environment Variables. In the section System Variables, find the PATH environment variable and select it. * Click Edit. If the PATH environment variable does not exist, click New. * In the Edit System Variable (or New System Variable) window, specify the value of the PATH environment variable Or append ";c:\<Local Folder>\Globus\bin" to the existing value. * Click OK. Close all remaining windows by clicking OK. Once we are able to address the “Error -1, activating gass cipy module” issue, what is next to setup the windows client to use SSH for authentication? Clearly, the user should have SSH access into the corresponding DTN. Note: we are trying to avoid users to use Cygwin but the MinGW version of the Globus Toolkit client for Windows. Again, help will be greatly appreciated!
