I'm trying to get Emacs to work over SSH under Windows (both client and server). With Emacs 23.2 (downloaded from the GNU FTP), SUA as SSH server and Bitvise as SSH client, when I run './emacs.exe -nw' I get "standard input is not a tty".

It says here that this also doesn't work on a cygwin server, and here is an old thread (2000) discussing the same (or very similar) issue.

Has anyone got this to work?

Have you considered using dokan on your client and just accessing the files "locally" through that?

Dokan seems to be having some issues currently ( dokan-dev.net/en/2011/01/12/dokan-sshfs-0-6-0-released ), plus it would run locally which I guess would be pretty slow... – Mauricio Scheffer Mar 13 '11 at 22:04
