Weird issue trying to plot on powershell through ssh

I’m trying to plot on a Windows 10 machine without having to wait for it to be free (my family uses it), so my goal is to plot on the command line through ssh.

I tried with cygwin and OpenSSH, and in both cases I get:

$ ./chia.exe plots create -k 32 -b 4000 -r 2 -t g: -d h:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "win32ctypes\pywin32\pywintypes.py", line 35, in pywin32error
  File "win32ctypes\pywin32\win32cred.py", line 66, in CredRead
  File "win32ctypes\core\cffi\_authentication.py", line 147, in _CredRead
  File "win32ctypes\core\cffi\_util.py", line 81, in __call__
  File "win32ctypes\core\cffi\_util.py", line 92, in _raise_error
OSError: [WinError 1312] A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated

It does work when run locally (not through ssh), so I know this is not a Chia bug, but googling the issue only brings up a recommendation to change a policy through gpedit.msc which is not available on this machine (maybe windows server thing?).

I’m stuck having to wait until the machine is not in use to check or manage my plots. Any help, hints or sympathy would be appreciated. :slight_smile:
