Great. I have made said attachment. One interesting oddity about my installation is that I have two usernames which are identical, one for our Windows domain and one for the administrator account on my PC. I made sure to give both accounts admin privileges locally on the machine, but that seems not always to work. I also noticed when I installed cygwin (yesterday) that the installation correctly recognized both accounts and indeed created two entries in /etc/passwd. I was way impressed in my minimal IT experience. However, I have noticed that various pieces of the installation were confused about what was my home directory. Some packages (SSH) think the home page should be /home/senior whereas the default bash shell thinks it's located in /cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/senior.DOMAIN.
Now, regarding installation of the sshd service. I simply ran the '/usr/bin/ssh-host-config -y' command followed by 'cygrunsrv -S sshd' This all sounds like a cruel permissions problem, yuck! -K On Fri, Jan 6, 2006, Chris Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: > Ken Senior wrote: >> Does anyone know why after a Windows XP reboot one must restart the SSH >> daemon in order to allow incoming ssh?
