Today I tried to install sshd on my
cygwin system, (which also resulted in
downloading lots of updates, since I'd
been lax in updating for a while).
I went through the setup procedures for
openssh, and got it working. During all
of this, I had disabled my firewall
(ZoneAlarm), since I've had prob
ve no '//c' in my
paths
Please let me know if there is anything else I can do. While I am
certain that something about the cygwin upgrade ssh install caused this
change, it
seems toaffect other applictaions too (ipconfig now does a DNS request
too, which
it neverused to do)
Thanks,
Geof
I can specify the attachment
type with it. I just can't access my home computer at the moment.
Thank you for your help.

Thank you,
One more thing, I forgot to ask...

I care. The reason I use zonealarm is to prevent any nasty 'sneaky'
programs from trying to send data off my system without my knowing it.
It has nothing to do with security (well that is the incoming part, which
is there to
cygwin program.
I just can't figure out what installing sshd (or whatever I did while
installinng sshd) made everything get hosed.
Thanks,
Geoff
