Hi folks,
I'm sure I had found some references to this before, but I'm completely
unable to dig them out again, so please bear with me.
We are using cygwin+openssh for remote logins from linux onto an WinXP
machine, which we use for automated build processes. We set up public
key authentication successfully, however, there seem to be some
differences between publickey authentication and password authentication
- mainly, when using the public key, several permissions are
wrong/missing/whatsoever. On problem is when trying to access network
shares (we use AFS, just to complicate matters further...), the other
manifests itself when trying to run several .NET applications (NDoc and
especially signtool.exe). We can work around most ones, except for the
signtool issue :-(
I'd really hate going back to password logins since this basically
prevents fully automated builds, so is there any way around it? Probably
some server misconfiguration which I can't find out?
SSH server config excerpt:
- Uses privilege separation
- service starts as SYSTEM account
- CYGINW=ntsec
- Rest as suggested by ssh-host-config

Or, if you prefer the cutting edge:

Read this thread and others on the Cygwin list that have tried this before
proceeding.
