[I'm reposting this with a couple of corrections/clarifications and
also to raise its visibility since I didn't get any responses last
time :-)]
It's been a month since Larry Hall replied to my last post on this
topic (thanks, BTW), and this issue has bubbled up to the top again.
I have tried various ways to get the sshd service started as a domain
user (instead of the default local user "sshd_server") and can not
get it to work. What is the correct syntax to specify a domain user
with cygrunsrv? This is what I have tried:
cygrunsrv -I sshd -u "DOMAINNAME\USERNAME" -w PASSWORD -d "CYGWIN
sshd" -p /usr/sbin/sshd -a -D -e "CYGWIN=bin tty smbntsec" -y tcpip
This successfully installs the service, and if I look at it in the
Services control panel, it shows the correct username (DOMAIN
\USERNAME), but if I try to start the service I always get the error
"The Cygwin sshd service in Local Computer started and then
stopped". If I substitute sshd_server for the user and supply the
correct password, the sshd service starts correctly. But I want to
start the service as a domain user so that I can access network
shares and resolve some build issues with Visual Studio that are
apparently caused by not being fully authenticated.
