I actually executed ssh-host-config and chose to create the NT service and both the sshd and sshd_server users. Everything looks exactly the same as in my WinXP succesful installation. However, on my Win2003, when I run "cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd", I always get immediately the 1053 error. The cygrunsrv process stays running, but the NT service appears for ever as "starting". At the Windows Event Viewer, I can only see "The CYGWIN sshd service was successfully sent a start control.", but nothing else. No file /var/log/sshd.log is not created. Is there anything else I can check?
best regards

Using 'openssh-host-config' is the only documented, supported approach to setting up a Cygwin openssh server. If you follow instructions from other locations, then you need to ask for assistance at those locations. The documentation for the Cygwin-specific openssh setup begins in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README.

Hi,
I've installed sshd succesfully a couple of time on WinXP machines following the instructions at http://pigtail.net/LRP/printsrv/cygwin-sshd.html.
However, I didn' manage on a Windows 2003 server. I always get "1053 did not start in a timely fashion" immediately on clicking on the Windows service "start" button. I tried with both enabling and disabling the privilege separation.
I don't think I have to follow the instructions at http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-09/msg00977.html, since my cygwin version (cygwin DLL version: 1.5.12) already creates a ssd_server user with the privileges mentioned there.
