Hi,
I was able to resolve this issue by switching the user who runs the sshd
service. If anyone else is having this problem you can find detailed
documentation on how to do get around this issue this at
http://ist.uwaterloo.ca/~kscully/CygwinSSHD_W2K3.html.
Thanks,
Terry

Subject: OPENSSH passwordless login getting "system error 59" on "net use"
cmd with samba
Hi,
I am getting "system error 59" when I run "net use z:\\\\server\\share
/user:user1 <password>" to access a samb shared drive in an openssh
windows session where I use passwordless login with command "ssh -i
<identity_file> user1@<server> " to login to the windows desktop running
sshd. I have been searching the mailing lists, but have not found any
information on this specific issue.
I am trying to run a batch script from a unix server to execute some
commands on the windows desktop that need to access a shared drive. I
installed and configured samba3 on the unix server where the shared files
are located. I have installed and configured the most recent download of
cygwin with the openssh option on the windows desktop. Logged in as user1
on the windows destktop, I can run the dos console or the cygwin shell and
successfully map network drives usin the "net use" command above. I am
also successfully able to run the "net use" command on the windows client
when I login using openssh as user1 and get prompted for the password
(using command "ssh user1@<server>"). Therefore I know that I have
correctly setup samba, cygwin and openssh for user1 to access the shared
drive. I then created keys using ssh-keygen for passwordless login for
user1 on the desktop. When I login to the desktop using openssh
passwordless login for user1 with command "ssh -i <identity_file>
[EMAIL PROTECTED]", I get "system error 59" when I run the same "net use"
command above. I cannot have any user prompts for the passwords in my
script. Does anyone know if is possible to use passwordless login from
openssh and then map a network drive using samba to access the shared
drive in the ssh session? If so, any ideas on why this is not working.
If this will not work, does anyone know if this will work with SFU ( in
place of samba) or any other software for sharing the drives?
Thanks for you help in this issue,
Terry
