After reading the FAQ entry, the referenced cygrunsrv README and http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html, I made the following changes to my configuration, independently of each other: - Changed the group IDs of Administrator and my user account from 513 (None) to 544 (Administrators). This had no effect. - Reinstalled sshd so as to log in as Administrator, as follows: cygrunsrv --install sshd -u Administrator -w mypasswd -p /usr/sbin/sshd.exe When I subsequently ran cygrunsrv --start sshd, I got: cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. sshd was then hung in "starting" state, according to Service Manager, and I had to reboot to clear it. -- -Chip Olson | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | "And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold / For your weary toes to be a-touchin' / And the ship's wise men will remind you once again / The whole wide world is watchin'" -Bob Dylan, "When The Ship Comes In" -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
