ssh under cygwin


hi

when i try ...

slogin <my remote host>

... under cygwin it says ...

Could not create directory '//.ssh'.

... and if i try ...

mkdir //.ssh

... myself it says ...

mkdir: cannot make directory `//.ssh': Invalid argument

... is the ssh problem the same as the mkdir problem and what is the problem
?  oh, and what's the solution if there is one :)

paul

p.s.  i have searched the archives and couldn't find anything AND i did see
in the FAQ that ...

Some programs can't deal with // pathname scheme in arguments

... but i believe that other people have got ssh going under cygwin so i
feel (desperately) sure that there's a solution
