It seems the sshd service can no longer run, for reasons that mystify me: > # net start sshd > System error 1069 has occurred. > > The service did not start due to a logon failure. I wasn't aware of having changed anything; would it be advisable to just reinstall sshd from setup.exe and/or sshd_host_config, or is there some simple troubleshooting I might do? In case it helps, the sshd user in /etc/passwd is: > sshd:unused:1003:513:sshd > privsep,U-ryan-cms-utsc\sshd,S-1-5-21-2165564742-446954615-706276285-1003:/var/empty:/bin/bash Thanks!
