Re: Expect scripting error

[John McKee <jmmckee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tested from Cygwin becaise that was available, even if in no way ideal.

I am getting lost here.  Use putty on my pc to connect to sshd on the 
i, so that
sftp sees a real terminal?  I don't believe my almighty sysadmin has 
configured
sshd, since he only does things HE needs, when HE needs them.  I will 
Google to
see what has to be done and hope QSECOFR authority is not needed.  Talking to
the sysadmin is somewhat less pleasant than some invasive medical procedures.
