Re: Cygwin commands crashes after ssh login


Frank's recompilation success has been repeated.  And, I recompiled ASH as
well.  Problem is gone on three machines.

Thanks, Frank (and Yadin).

If you're interested in pre-re-compiled binaries, check out
ftp://ftp.erdelynet.com/ftp/downloads/bash.exe.gz and
ftp://ftp.erdelynet.com/ftp/downloads/sh.exe.gz.  If you want some
information about installing these files, look at
http://mike.erdelynet.com/sshd-error.asp#solution.

One note, when I re-compiled bash, I had to create _distribution and
_patchlevel files to work.  After doing so, though, I was successful.

Please let me know if you have any questions/comments,
