I get that too, but I also get the "You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access" message. I think the error is at their end and can be safely ignored since you don't need a PTY for your no shell access anyway. If it didn't happen last week, they probably upgraded the ssh version on the server or tweaked a config setting related to error reporting or something like that. Ah, yes: it appears to be expected behaviour - and quite a FAQ! http://support.github.com/discussions/accounts/327-ssh-gitgithubcom-pty-allocation-request-failed-on-channel-0 http://support.github.com/discussions/accounts/981-ssh-authentication-failure http://support.github.com/discussions/repos/3074-pty-allocation-request-failed-on-channel-0 http://support.github.com/discussions/repos/5325-pty-allocation-request-failed-on-channel-0-revisited cheers, DaveK -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
