Unfortunately, it simply asks for my password over and over again. Eventually, the number of attempts are exceeded and access is denied. >>From what I read, it is specific to plink somehow munging the password string prior to sending it to the ssh server. For whatever reason, plink simply doesn't work for me via emacs or the cli unless I use the "-pw" switch and send my password in the clear. I've tried various combinations of the other switches ( agent/noagent/ssh versions) and none of them make any difference. Is there any other way to do ssh on windows from NTEmacs? So far, plink plux. -T
