Ok, onto Windows Box #2. Installed cygwin with sshd using ssh-host-config, but this time elected not to use privilege separation. The service starts this time without a problem. But a new problems arises, when
ssh -vvv localhost .. .. .. debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply Connection closed by 127.0.0.1 I consistently get the connection closed error. I turned off the firewall. No difference. I looked in the Windows system logs, and this is what I find: sshd: PID 1960: fatal: seteuid 1000: No such process How do I proceed?? -- Kevin Hilton -- 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/
