Hello all,I'm trying to install a service to keep some SSH tunnels alive using the following script: $ cat ssh_tunnel.exe #!/usr/bin/bash while : do /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/netstat -an | grep 192\.168\.0\.1:139 \ | grep LISTENING> /dev/null if (( $? )); then /usr/bin/ssh -v -v -v -x -i/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa -2 \ -L 192.168.0.1:139:127.0.0.1:139 -N remote_u...@remote.host 2>&1& fi /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/netstat -an | grep 192\.168\.0\.1:3306 \ | grep LISTENING> /dev/null if (( $? )); then /usr/bin/ssh -v -v -v -x -i/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa -2 \ -L 192.168.0.1:3306:127.0.0.1:3306 -N remote_u...@remote.host 2>&1& fi sleep 300 done The script works fine at the command line, but fails when running as a service. My vain attempt to gather info (-v -v -v) only yields: Permission denied, please try again. Permission denied, please try again. Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password). in the service log (all three lines for each instance of an ssh command). SYSTEM should have access to id_rsa: $ getfacl id_rsa # file: id_rsa # owner: user # group: Domain Users user::rw- group::--- group:SYSTEM:r-- mask:rwx other:--- $ ls -l id_rsa -rw-------+ 1 user Domain Users 1679 Dec 13 13:40 id_rsa But, id_rsa was generated as "user", not as "SYSTEM," so I'm wondering if SYSTEM needs it's own private RSA key, and how one would go about generating one, since I don't seem to be able to su to the SYSTEM user.
Correct. What you propose could be a work-around for your case. Check out the link below for how to create a SYSTEM-owned shell that you can then experiment with. <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-08/msg01132.html> -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- 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
