1.5.5: sshd problem

m not an expert on either). Could either of these issues be bugs which are causing me problems here? I had a look for /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files under cygwin, and these files don't exist. Any suggestions mightily appreciated! John Pye 1 --- [EMAIL PROTECTED

am going to have to do a total remove-and-reinstall of cygwin? May the merciful hacker who comes to my aid be blessed with infinite vanilla milkshakes, or something.
