I tried the incantation (You're a clever script coder) and the chmod
commands but to no avail. Insofar as I can tell, system has access to
all of the files it is looking for. I even tried chmod 777
/var/log/sshd.log in an effort to identify the problem..
I also went through a cygwin installation on a Windows/2000 machine
using the same procedure as the Windows/2003 server machine, and it
works just fine. So I conclude that there is some subtle difference
between W2K3 and W2K which is tripping up Cygwin for some reason. Maybe
that's naive.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
