I'm trying to setup a snow grid using sockets (Windows 7).  On the test grid (my computer and another) I have an SSHD server up and running, can connect OK via public key authentication.  Running "makeSOCKcluster" on just my local machine works OK.  Running it to the other computer fails.  My SSH logs show the connection accepted, authenticated and then dropped.
 
I added "manual=TRUE" to get the command line for the remote machine.  Running what is printed on that machine from the console is OK.  My session connects and pushes work out OK.  So I know the command line is not the problem.
 
I then modified newSOCKnode function to print the "cmd" variable before calling it on the system.  This gives me the ssh command with the remote command appended.  It looks OK.  When I paste this into the local command line, it connects to the remote machine and starts Rscript.exe without issue.
 
I've tried the outfile= option without success -- it is not created on the remote machine.   
 
I'm at a loss as to where to go and what to try next.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks
Dominic
