Re: What is the host name?
@Gladys: No. It's address or name of the computer you are trying to connect to.

Bug reports without an attached log file are usually useless.
ashah@xxx.xxx
(host name). This means ashah
will connect to the xxx.xxx
(host). In WinSCP windows, I have created this session and then have created desktop shortcut from there.
ashah@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
? When WinSCP parameter is in format aaa@bbb
and aaa@bbb
is not name of any stored session, it tries to connect to host bbb
with username aaa
and default settings.
