The question to ask yourself, being a linux newbie is how you would run a VB script under "cmd /c" on linux. Give up? You wouldn't do anything like that under linux because neither VB scripts nor cmd exist. So, whatever problem you may be having is probably due to the fact that cmd and/or VB are not interacting well with the Cygwin ssh environment. Most likely it doesn't know what to do with Cygwin ptys (another linux construct). cgf -- 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/
