I need to be able to SSH into a Windows machine with Cygwin installed and be able to run Windows programs and see the Windows they create. That is, when I run "notepad" I need to see the Window it creates. And, I need multiple users to be able to do this.
In the past, I did this by having each user put an item in their Startup folder that did: C:\cygwin64\usr\sbin\sshd.exe -p 8100 where the port, 8100 in this case, is different for each user. The snag now seems to be: $ /usr/sbin/sshd.exe -p 8100 /var/empty must be owned by root and not group or world-writable. $ ls -l /var total 4 drwxr-xr-x+ 1 layer Domain Users 0 Mar 16 10:13 cache/ drwxr-x--x+ 1 Administrator Administrators 0 Mar 16 10:08 empty/ drwxr-xr-x+ 1 layer Domain Users 0 Mar 16 10:06 lib/ drwxrwxrwt+ 1 Administrators Administrators 0 Mar 16 15:08 log/ drwxrwxrwt+ 1 Administrators Administrators 0 Mar 16 10:51 run/ drwxrwxrwt+ 1 layer Domain Users 0 Apr 2 00:42 tmp/ $ The "in the past" is on an older version of Cygwin that hasn't been updated in a while. The new machine, where this is not working, is pretty up to date. Ideas? Thanks.
