This is my case: using local accounts only. Reminder: sshd did work w/ 2.11.2 ... (and it works now in 3.0.1 after replacing cyg_server w/ SYSTEM (*) ) Way back I started using cyg_server because "csih" forced me to create this privileged account (W7!). I studied "csih" (cygwin-service-installation-helper.sh) again ... 64-@@# editrights -u cyg_server -l SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege SeCreateTokenPrivilege SeServiceLogonRight SeDenyInteractiveLogonRight SeDenyRemoteInteractiveLogonRight Compared to "csih", the SeTcbPrivilege privilege was missing. I am not in the habit of messing with privileges ... Consequently, like you, I am stumped too :-) (*) after "moving" the sshd service from cyg_server to SYSTEM, I also changed the ownership of /var/empty and /etc/ssh* (to SYSTEM) ... Next, I disabled the cyg_server and sshd accounts. ssh still works.
