Is there a problem using pscp under rxvt? 'pscp' is not a Cygwin program so it doesn't understand Cygwin ptys. Run 'pscp' under 'cmd' and make sure your CYGWIN environment variable doesn't contain 'tty'. Then it should work. That or build a Cygwin version of putty and friends. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc. (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office 216 Dalton Rd.
