Your uninstall-fu is weak. You didn't delete the service when you moved C:\cygwin to one side and reinstalled. Hence ssh-host-config didn't reinstall the service because it thought it was already installed. There's a procedure in the FAQ for comprehensively uninstalling cygwin. http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.uninstall-all and one for how to uninstall a cygwin service: http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.uninstall-service cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- 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/
