Hi Jim, Many thanks for that. The recent posts in the archive seem to be about problems different to mine.
However, googling the terms "cygwin" and "seteuid" eventually took me to this page: https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2019-February/240238.html Running "passwd -R" for 'other_user', as suggested by the subject of the post, fixed the problems for me. It looks like sshd isn't handling a login failure properly. Andy. On Tue, Sep 3, 2024 at 7:57 PM Jim McNamara via Cygwin <cygwin@cygwin.com> wrote: > > >>This looks like a bug. Can anyone help?
