Hi all, SOLVED!
If I use the 'Administrator' local account the script ssh-host-config fails when trying to chown the /etc/ssh* files. But, if I use the 'Administrator' domain account then the script works (i.e. this user can chown the files to the SYSTEM account). The only thing this domain account can't do is create directories under /home. Why? Because its primary group is "mkgroup-l-d". So I need to change this first by running "mkpasswd -l" and "mkgroup -l". In this manner this domain account can create /home/pkuser and then create here a .ssh directory with the authorized_keys I need to implement public key authentication. It now works like a charm. Thank you very much to all for your help. -- 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/
