You have to manually edit and add users to the /etc/passwd. You control the password field with the crypt command. Mkpasswd only works on NT/2000/XP machines. So, Create a new /etc/passwd file like this: user::500:1000:User:/home/user:/bin/bash Then, run the crypt command: crypt password Copy the output and paste it between the "user:" and the ":500" in the /etc/passwd file. -ME -----Original Message----- From: cygwin-owner AT sources DOT redhat DOT com [mailto:cygwin-owner AT sources DOT redhat DOT com] On Behalf Of jinhyuk choi Sent: Saturday, August 18, 2001 1:57 AM To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Subject: listen on port 22 but can't auth and login ?? i created /etc/passwd with command mkpasswd -d domain >/etc/passwd. i executed ssh-host-config -y and ssh-user-config -y -p 'xxxxxx' so now my machine can run /usr/sbin/sshd.exe and listen on port 22. but, can only login from user unknown without password, can't login from another michine or securecrt.
