I know this has been on the list previously, but I have searched the FAQ and recent archives and cannot find the relevant references. I have found some relating to permissions, but these don't address my issue. Anyway, my XP system died and I have had to re-install windoze. So as this was a fresh install I obtained a later version (1.5.12) of cygwin than the year or so old version I had. I had sshd working with the older version of cygwin but I do not want to regress that version. The new version of cygwin installed fine, I then executed
$ ssh-host-config I responded 'yes' whenever prompted (later I tried without privilege separation with the same result) $ cygrunsrv -I sshd -p /usr/sbin/sshd.exe $ cygrunsrv -Q sshd this showed the service as stopped, though nothing showed in windoze services $ cygrunsrv -S sshd this gave me a windows error 1062 and reported, correctly, that the service had not started my event log merely shows an operation not permitted on sshd I know there have been previous discussions of this, but can't find them. Any pointers? To what I am doing wrong?
