These two lines mean that "expr" didn't work correctly. > Generating /etc/ssh_config file > c:\usr\local\wbin\cp.exe: /etc/defaults/etc/ssh_config: No such file or directory ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This means that you have another set of unix-like tools in your path *before* the Cygwin ones. I'd also assume you have "expr" there, which would explain why it didn't work as expected. > Overwrite existing /etc/sshd_config file?
