Did anyone ever actually say _what_ the implementation problem is? I have googled several times over the years about this, and nothing clear shows up. Only that there is a problem which causes SSH and rsync hangs and that it's to do with Cygwin or underlying implementation - but never any details. Yet, from that remark, I get the impression that somebody has an idea what the implementation problem is. If we knew what it was, we might have a chance at working around it. -- Jamie -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
