Well, I want to install cygwin on a production server and wanted to make sure there are no current security concerns or things that I should be aware of. I just wanted to know if anybody else had any issues where it conflicted with any existing application that was running at the time or any modification they had to make to cygwin for security purposes. <BLOCKQUOTE style='PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #A0C6E5 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px'><font style='FONT-SIZE:11px;FONT-FAMILY:tahoma,sans-serif'><hr color=#A0C6E5 size=1> From: <i>"Larry Hall (Cygwin)" <reply-to-list-only-lh AT cygwin DOT com></i><br>Reply-To: <i>cygwin AT cygwin DOT com</i><br>To: <i>ABi DaR <snyper411 AT hotmail DOT com></i><br>CC: <i>cygwin AT cygwin DOT com</i><br>Subject: <i>Re: security concerns / production environment</i><br>Date: <i>Thu, 13 Oct 2005 16:58:47 -0400</i><br>>ABi DaR wrote:<br>>>Greetings,<br>>> Are there any known issues about running "cygwin SSHD" service <br>>>in a production environment?
