Yes, I wanted to check the perms on a share, for sys admin work, from within an ssh session. We get R/W access to network shares all the time from within cygwin ssh sessions on windows computers, but for *password* authenticated ssh sessions. > You have to change the SSH daemon to run as a user of the domain so > that it can read network shares properly, this guide is a big help: > > http://ist.uwaterloo.ca/~kscully/CygwinSSHD_W2K3.html Now we might be even further OT, but-Thank-you Andrew. At the risk of getting Corinna angry.. does the approach in the link above allow one to write to appropriately permissioned network shares from within a public key authenticated ssh session?
