How does one set permissions on id_rsa in such a way as to make ssh happy? Nothing I have done has made chmod 700 id_rsa actually work.

chmod 600 has always worked fine for me.

[09:39:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.ssh]> ls -l id_rsa
-rw-r--r-- 1 cbenson mkpasswd 887 Aug 17 15:54 id_rsa
[09:40:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.ssh]> chmod 600 id_rsa
[09:40:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.ssh]> ls -l id_rsa

Pretty annoying stuff...

We will probably need more information: Output of "cygcheck -svr" and

See cygcheck.log, attached.

"ls -ld / /home ~ ~/.ssh ~/.ssh/id_rsa" would be a good start.

[09:41:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.ssh]> ls -ld / /home ~ ~/.ssh
~/.ssh/id_rsa
ls: /home: No such file or directory
drwxrwxrwx+ 15 cbenson mkpasswd 0 Aug 17 16:05 /
drwxr-xr-x 1 cbenson mkpasswd 65536 Aug 17 17:12 /cygdrive/h

It appears as if your home directory is on the H drive and this is mounted from another system. Thus CYGWIN=ntsec does not apply because this is a share mounted using SMB. Thus, as I said before, you need to set CYGWIN=smbntsec and try again.
