Hi Corinna,
I have responded to both the mailing list and your email, to insure that the message gets past the mail daemon.

> good call on the sshd version, however I still can't login. sshd -d yields :
Which cygwin dll are you using (output of `uname -a')?

CYGWIN_NT-4.0 RAND 1.1.4(0.26/3/2) 2000-08-03 20:53 i686 unknown

The "Permission denied" is somewhat strange. Did you set administrators
home directory (as whom you try to login) in /etc/passwd? 

I renamed the administrator account as johnl, this is a security trick, the  home directory listed in passwd for johnl is /bin/sh

Strangely echo $HOME yields:  /cygdrive/c/winnt/Profiles/Administrator

is this a problem?

Did you check
the permissions of ~administrator/.ssh and subsidiary files?

there is no file or directory named, ~administrator/.ssh 

should this have been created?


Thanks Again

Clark
