Best tihng to do is just to run it. /usr/sbin/sshd That works. I don`t need to install it as a service. Installing it as a service and starting it, that was where the problem was. Some article on the net on the LRP site, about running sshd, only mentioned the "net start sshd" or "cygrunsrv -S sshd" method to start it. -- -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
