OK. I have a particular user who already has a windows account, but now i'd like to be able to allow that user (username: billy) to ssh into the domain controller (to be able to use cygwin).
What I did so far is `mkpasswd -d | grep billy >> /etc/passwd`. Then billy tries to do `ssh host_name -l billy`, but billy gets permission denied. So then i thought that billy might need a new password, so i ran `passwd billy`, and gave him a new password. Still no luck. This is why I was asking about documentation about creating a new user. Windows documentation is not enough; this is cygwin related. Do you have any idea about what I should try to let this user log in ? Thanks for your time. +------------------- | On Tue, Feb 12, 2002 at 01:35:06PM -0500, Alex BATKO wrote: | > | > Where in the documentation on the cygwin site is there information | > about how to create a new user ? | | Nowhere.
