I've been having a problem with (I think) OpenSSH sshd in Cygwin. I have a project that builds with Nmake, and Nmake calls itself recursively as it works it's way down into subdirectories. When I run nmake from a regular cygwin bash window or from within an rxvt window, it works fine. But, if I ssh into the machine, the first few lines of nmake output get displayed, but at about the time nmake calls itself recursively, no more output is visible. That happens after a few lines, and could be a coincidence. The nmake build continues on fine, but no output is visible. This happened with the machine running sshd versions 3.6.1p1 and 3.6p1, installed with setup.exe. It was fixed when I backed off to 3.5p1.
This symptom seems similar to reports I saw regarding running dos commands from rxvt, and a tty vs. pty problem. I saw this problem when I ssh-ed to the machine from itself, and when I ssh-ed in from another machine. I only changed the sshd version on the machine in question. I did not change ssh on the remote machine. It remained 3.6.1p1. I had to insert 3.5.p1 by hand (bunzip2, tar xvf). I could not figure out how to get setup.exe to back off to that version. cygwin 1.3.22-1 The nmake files are actually generated by cmake. That's probably not relevant. Not a great bug report, but hopefully it will be useful to someone.
