I have problem to run a shell when I login in remotely by WinSCP

It reports:

bash: no job control in this shell

It only happens when I am using Linux remotely. How should I deal with it?

winscp doesn't give a console does it? I thought it was just for file transfer, hence the name, winSCP.

What if you use putty or cygwin or some other Windows ssh client/terminal?

WinSCP does have a console. I can compile codes with it fine.

Not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish but I would assume it falls under the limitation that it requires terminal emulation or user input which is not possible. As suggested use putty.

WinSCP can call putty and start a console session with it. You have to configure it, but it is easy.

NAtch, you also have to have putty.

See the WinSCP help pages.
