Hi Corinna - nothing like that. The product I work with simply uses ssh to issue cmd.exe on remote windows hosts. Some of our customers install cygwin on their Windows boxes to enable the ssh connection, we do not dictate what they use nor do we help them obtain any product, they just need to allow us an ssh session in whatever manner they choose. I just need to know what to tell them if they are using Cygwin, since cmd.exe is no longer working with cygwin 1.7.1. I can just tell them cygwin 1.7.1 does not work and they need to find some other method to allow ssh, or change my code to use the upper case c instead, but if I can point them to a fix on the cygwin end seems like it would be a better answer. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your help! Jennifer
