I've got the following problem, that I'll describe with the steps, so You can reproduce it... 1. open cygwin (normal black command prompt window) 2. run "rxvt -e bash &" from there 3. on the rxvt terminal, execute an ssh to any host Now, what happens is that the "password" prompt from the SSH will appear on the black command prompt window, NOT in the rxvt terminal. Even worst, the password can NOT be enter in any of them... only option is to run SSH on the main black command prompt... Please, anybody knows how to make SSH work in any other terminal, like RXVT on this case?
