Removal of service and backing up of old files
================================================================
Before installing the sshd service you should make sure that you
have made a backup copy of your old configuration files and log
files (if they exist). Run the following commands from a root
prompt:
# mkdir -p /var/tmp/sshd && chown -R root:root /var/tmp/sshd
# chmod -R u=rwx,go-rwx /var/tmp/sshd
# tar cf /var/tmp/sshd/old-cfg.tar /etc/ssh*
# cygrunsrv -E sshd; cygrunsrv -R sshd
Installing service/default config files
================================================================
Now your ready to install the service. Run the following
commands from a root prompt:
# ssh-host-config -y
Fixing permissions for privsep and SCM related files
================================================================
Now you need to fix-up some permissions for the files that sshd
will need to access/write to. Run the following commands from a
root prompt:
# [ -f /var/log/sshd.log ] && mv /var/log/sshd.log /var/log/sshd.log.old
# touch /var/log/sshd.log
# chown system:system /var/log/sshd.log /var/empty /etc/ssh_h*
# chmod go-rwx /etc/ssh_host*_key
# chmod 755 /var/empty
All Done!!! Now your ready to start sshd:
# cygrunsrv -S sshd
If that results in an error, then check out the contents of
/var/log/sshd.log , which may give you some clues.
