That's a must have. No, I did not know about this either. I will try these suggestions as soon as I get a chance, but that might not be until I return to the office next week. A quick question, though. Instead of making all these changes, is there a better way to (re-)install Cygwin sshd so that it is properly set up for a domain user?
