I just installed cygwin/X. My system is:
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 AGAINSTSTONE-LX 1.5.24(0.156/4/2) 2007-01-31 10:57 i686 Cygwin
I start the X server using the included startxwin.bat file. In the xterm
window this is what I got
$ ssh destination.host
Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
...
ssh asks me for password but as I type the password echoes into the terminal
window! I assume this is related to the warning message about not being
able to allocate Pseudo terminal. But why? Why is my stdin not a terminal?
Anybody has a clue?
Thanks,
Peter
