Windows client problem

[mmangone]

I am trying to test the agent on a Windows 2003 Server (has all the latest patches)...  I'm seeing this scroll on a putty session to the Babel server.  The Windows box has yet to report properly.  Obviously SSH is working from the client to the server.  Any thoughts?  (yes i know there is another thread similar to this but...)

This is all I see in the server log...

Should I try and increase the log level?

[mmangone]

I up'ed the log level a bit and I don't see anything different...

verbosity = 2

I switched to FTP and everything works on the Windows side.  Looking forward to a fix because FTP is a no-no here.

The problem is in the window's libssh library, so the fix won't come soon.
But, we're going to implement tentacle as a new protocol in the windows agent, though.
We're using it already in pandora, so it will come soon.
