Thanks for the comment about cygrunsrv and the method of removing service from win2k That worked well
Since I have inetd working well. I have a telnet server and also a FTP server, but neither is available outside of my firewall. I thought that I would try and see if I could use the sshd server that I just setup via the inetd thing. When I did this, I got an error message of: ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer What would this mean? This is the only error message that I have been getting from the ssh deamon when I try and connect, and even before I ran that setup script.
