In fact I have happily been using the cygwin/ssh client and cygwin/sshd server configuration with my previous company which didn't have any proxy whereas with my current company, all internet traffic goes through the proxy server. I have done some search on the internet on such issue and I have read about the ProxyCommand in ssh configuration and a tool called netcat (or nc) but it would seem that only the openbsd version of nc will do the trick (the version found in cygwin packages won't be of any help). I was wondering that since cygwin setup software is able to nicely connect to the internet via a proxy when using the option "Use IE5 Settings", there should be a way to tell ssh client to use IE5 settings when connecting to the ssh server ... Any help and or pointer to such issue is most welcome, Cheers, Teggy -- 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/
