Did you read /usr/doc/Cygwin/openssh-2.3.0p1.README? Don't forget to set the user rights of the user starting the application which tries to change the user context (sshd, login) according to the above documentation. A similar hint is in /usr/doc/Cygwin/inetutils-1.3.2.README. Then I suggest reading the online user docs http://cygwin.com/docs.html and especially the corresponding part in the NTSEC chapter http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#NTSEC-SETUID Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Developer mailto:cygwin@cygwin.com Red Hat, Inc. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
