Hello, I am running a CVS server on a Win2K machine connecting through SSH, where sshd is a standard installation of CYGWIN (i.e running under the SYSTEM account as configured by the ssh-config-host script).
In the file /usr/doc/Cygwin/openssh-3.0.1p1-2.README it says that since openssh 2.9 one can also switch user context when using cygwin 1.3.5 or later. This does not seem to work for me (my versions are openssh 3.0.1p1-2 and cygwin 1.3.6-4). For password authentication everything is correct, CVS log messages are for instance date 2001.12.06.10.33.09; author jakobus; state Exp; However, when using the ~/.ssh/authorizedkeys file then CVS also works, no error messages. But the CVS log files contain date 2001.12.06.10.33.09; author SYSTEM; state Exp; i.e. the user SYSTEM appears here. CYGWIN=NTSEC is used globally, and /etc/group and /etc/passwd were created with mkpasswd -l and mkgroup -l. Filesystem is NTFS. Any idea what the problem might be?
