Re: Invoking Miktex in Cygwin

Maybe it's because of the space in the name Program Files. I had this problem when I set up my JAVA_HOME, which is also subdirectory of Program Files. I renamed the directory, instead of Program files, to Progra~1, i.e. /cygdrive/c/Progra~1/..., which worked fine. Somebody said .../Program\

1. Is it possible to increase the bandwith by having the client aggregate multiple sessions through a single pipe? Could you please give me some advice how this can be achieved? I am not an SSH guru yet. 2. It would seem that PPTP connections can be much faster. E.g. a FreeBSD MPD running
