Are you sure the seteuid error is the important one? > The permissions of /home/sfinfo are 755 Acceptable. > The permissions of /home/sfinfo/.ssh are 755 Bzzt. > The permissions of /home/sfinfo/.ssh/authorized_keys are 644 Bzzt. The symptoms you describe are not what I would expect, but I'm pretty sure this will definitely not work unless the permissions on .ssh are 0700 and those on .ssh/authorized_keys are 0600. > The authorized_keys file contains one DSA public key. OK. > The permissions on the private key, sfinfo_id_dsa are 600. ...the private key is, of course, on the system you're ssh'ing *from* while the authorized_keys file is on the system you're ssh'ing *to*, correct? -- 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/
