I am sure I just am not seeing what's right in front of my nose, but I installed a stand-alone version of an earlier SSHD with a somewhat modified cygwin1.dll on advice of another user. Yes it DID totally mess up the machine (I had an earlier version of cygwin installed). Following the FAQ's, I removed every cygwin file, reference, etc. including reg keys and wrestled out the stand-alone SSHD from the Srvany key and finally got the "hacked" version of cygwin1.dll out of WinNt (I'm running under 2k pro). I then rebooted, verified my system had been sterilized of cygwin completely and reinstalled it from scratch (I should point out here that I did use the recommended installer using default install). That being accomplished as a smooth operation, I proceeded to invoke key generation using: ssh-keygen -b 1024 -f /etc/ssh_host_key -N '' that went perfect. I then went to start the daemon using: /usr/sbin/sshd and then it came back that there was no config file in /etc/rc ? I am now stumped. I poked around in /etc and there are no subdirectories at all. Did I miss something?
