Re: can not enter password for SSH when running in another terminal (RXVT)


Silly me...! Can't blame myself enough...

$ which ssh
/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Attachmate/Reflection/ssh

Who the **** installed this on my laptop??? probably automatically
when company logon...

Sorry to waste your time, but thanks a ton for all your help...

Anyway, installing 1.7 almost done :)

Regards,

Leo
