Name conflict with plink from ssh clone putty ============================================= We are facing a name clash in the Free Software universe and we have to circumvent. 1. The plink executable will be copied to /usr/lib/plink/plink 2. A symlink /usr/bin/p-link points to this location. So if you want to use plink with its original name just do the following: Set the PATH variable like export PATH="/usr/lib/plink:$PATH" or alternatively set a symlink into a directory which is normally in your PATH anyway like ln -s /usr/lib/plink/plink /usr/local/bin/plink if /usr/local/bin is in your PATH. This makes sure that scripts you are using will find the correct plink executable. -- Andreas Tille Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:28:25 +0200
