Thank-you! I tried the Dec 20 snapshot dated (~15:36 if I recall right), and the expect script worked fine; as a bonus it looks it yielded all the output wanted. Sorry I'm being so general..any how thanks again. There seems to be a new (related?) issue w/this Dec 20 snapshot. I don't have time to log the test formally now; I hope you will see the problem if you run: ssh localhost date At least in the case were you are prompted for your password, the date command either does not run or it's output is lost. -- Tom -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
