I used to have cygwin sshd running on my old Windows 2000 Domain Controller, worked like a charm. Some time ago I switched (reinstalled, actually) my domain controller to Windows Server 2003.
I went through the usual steps: download, "ssh-host-config -y", security model "ntsec" and installed it as a service. First, it worked for about 5 minutes. Then, when I tried to connect from a remote host, I got a network connection error. The server isn't accepting connections any more. Restarting the sshd service in windows results in:
"The CYGWIN sshd service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts service".
Needless to say, I don't think the sshd has nothing to do ...
The windows event log has a bit more informations: sshd : PID 5648: socket: Operation not permitted. sshd : PID 5648: fatal: Cannot bind any address.. sshd : PID 3508: starting service 'sshd' failed: execv: 255, error 255 sshd : PID 3508: 'sshd' service stopped.
/var/log/sshd.log shows: c:\cygwin\usr\sbin\sshd.exe: *** could not load user32, Win32 error 0
This is the only entry in this file, regardless of how many times I try to restart the service.
Thanks for your help Fermin
