Suppose a Windows 2000/XP/2003 machine exists where three accounts need to be

Further suppose these user accounts are to be named ssh_user_a, ssh_user_b,
and ssh_user_c, and that these should exist only in Cygwin's /etc/passwd file
- they won't be added as local Windows users.

My question is whether these users can be added only to Cygwin's /etc/passwd
file so that passwordless logins can be achieved, using .ssh/authorized_keys.

Possible?


Why not just give it a whirl.  Then you can tell us. ;-)
