scp won't copy to one computer

2009-05-27 Thread Ryan Stewart
I have cygwin + openssh installed on a few computers, and most things work fine, but there's one computer that I can't scp files to. I can scp from that computer to the others, but the others can't scp to that one. I also have a Ubuntu box that exhibits the same behavior. I can connect with ssh

File not found with scp

2009-03-25 Thread Ryan Stewart
I'm trying to use scp to copy a remote file to a local directory, and it's telling me the file isn't found. The file is there, I can connect and see it via ssh, and I can also use both ssh and scp with no problem in the other direction. i.e From computer A to computer B, ssh works but not scp.

Problem with aliases in bash as login shell

When bash is started with the -l (that's an 'L') flag, aliases that I've defined in .bashrc don't take effect. My .bash_profile includes a call to .bashrc, and I know that .bashrc is being executed because I've put an echo at the beginning and end of it, and both messages are printed out. Even if

Hi. I appreciate the work you guys do for Cygwin, but I just got blasted with the new xorg-server update when I was just trying to grab another package. I say blasted because it was not a good thing. Where I used to be able to lay out nice, clean terminal windows across my Windows desktop, I now
