Curt,
 That message shows when the user you are currently logged in AS is not
defined in the passwd file.  Check the passwd file and add a line for your
current user.

Mark

Hi,
I downloaded cygwin as vanilla as possible afaik to my win nt 4.0 box.

from setup log:
Installing latest/openssh/openssh-2.5.2p2-3.tar.gz

when I try to use ssh to get to a host on which I have an account (and 
which I access regularly using Secure CRT), I get the message
"you don't exist, go away!"

Same result whether typed in bash shell or executed in windows bat file at 
'dos' prompt.

I can execute the command on a win 2000 machine where some version of 
cygwin was installed some time ago, and it works fine.

I hunted around previous postings but didn't find anything quite like this.

Could somebody tell me what to look at.

Thanks,

-- Curt Springer
