Good to know. I'll keep an eye on the bug log.
I did try sshx, as you suggested, but that didn't work, either.
It did connect to the server, but seems to expect a password -- without
actually prompting the user to enter one.
The debug dump is over a million lines long; let me know if you want the
whole thing. (Gzipped, I assume.)
Here's the last bit, anonymized. Does this help?
Thanks again,
Fred
