Did you really want ssh from your local Vista to your local Vista? If yes, than the following pathes are a little different ;-) Please go to your server and run "/usr/sbin/sshd -ddd -D" Maybee your ssh-server say something about the reason. You can also check your /etc/ssh/sshd_config which authentications are allowed. Especially RSAAuthentication yes PubkeyAuthentication yes PasswordAuthentication yes (which seems to be set "no" in your configuration?) Did you have public/private key in /home/Admin/.ssh? Did you put your public key into /home/Admin/.ssh/authorized_keys? good luck Matthias -- Don't panic -- 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/
