Thanks for your answer, Alexander. You are right about the IPs, but that's no problem. I didn't want to publish my company's ips, so I changed the numbers. Only I didn't realize I put one number greater than 255.

Regards,

Hello,

I recently downloaded cygwin and I've been trying to make ssh and sftp work with no success. When I run these commands I get these outputs:

$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]

$ sftp [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Connecting to 142.268.10.26...
Connection closed

142.268.10.26 is not a legal name, as hostnames cannot contain
ONLY numbers. And it's also not an IP, as IP's cannot be larger
than 255, but 268 is.
