I am having problems pasting data (normal cut-and-paste operations) via an ssh
connection if the source in a cygwin terminal or xterm, and the _final_
destination is a NetApp controller. I say final destination because if I ssh to
an intermediate host, then ssh to the NetApp, I see the same problem.
The problem I see is that, while logged into the NetApp, if I paste any data (I've seen
it with as few as 4 characters), I will see some of the characters (a varying number) in
the window at the NetApp prompt, then will get a "Connection to host closed",
and the rest of the characters show at the command line where the ssh session originated.
The NetApp logs this error:
[telnet.socket.timeout:warning]: Telnet daemon socket timed out for the SShv2
connection.
and occasionally this one:
[openssh.socket.shutdown:info]: sshd_shell: socket shutdown() failed: Invalid
argument.]
I see this problem if I type really fast into the ssh window as well. It's
almost like I'm over-running a buffer or something.
Why are the warnings about telnet if you're connecting via ssh? Is their
ssh client a thin telnet wrapper or something?
Also, googling the error message turns up:
https://communities.netapp.com/message/92153 (perhaps you have a FAS6210
or 3270?)
My current version of Cygwin is 1.7.9. I upgraded all the current Cygwin
packages on a different computer and had the same issues (I don't have that
computer with me or I would give that version; I upgraded within the last few
weeks, so it should still be current).
I don't know why it would matter in this particular case, but is there a
reason you're not running the latest 1.7.16 cygwin dll? There have been
a lot of bugfixes since March...
As a sanity check I'd recommend updating the cygwin dll, perhaps even to
the latest snapshot (which has been completely stable for me and
incorporates yet more bugfixes).
