This is also clearly documented near the top of /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README. BTW, if you use the ssh-host-config script to configure your SSH service, all of these details will be handled for you automatically. Configuring the service or running sshd by any other mechanism has not been supported on this list, so if you have problems in the future, you will likely be asked to try again using ssh-host-config, perhaps after a complete wipe and reinstall of Cygwin. -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
