> Looking forward to it. You were right, the offender is the ssh-user-config, the check_user_homedir() function. The openssh is the 64-bit version, as in the stackexchange user's case. The issue is interesting, though. When I first installed the openssh, it offered me "prev" version of the package, even though I was installing from the net. Re-running the installer picked the "current" version. Setup.exe glitch? -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 18.02.2015, <16:17> Sorry for my terrible english...
