Description

"OpenSSH for Windows" version
tested with versions v1.0.0.0-Beta

Client OperatingSystem
Windows 7 SP1 Professional

What is failing
On Windows 7, I can't connect to any ssh server using the ssh.exe client from this project. but putty works.
I have tried ssh.exe both in version v0.0.24.0 and v1.0.0.0-Beta without success.

I see the following:
#966

but no environment "DISPLAY" variable on my Windows 7
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0

Expected output

ssh.exe [email protected]
[email protected]'s password:

Actual output

ssh.exe [email protected]
key_load_public: invalid format
ssh_askpass: posix_spawn: No such file or directory
Host key verification failed.
