We use, a patched version of openssh to do this. daffy AT sushi:~% grep strong /etc/ssh/sshd_config # entries in your LDAP must be posixAccount & strongAuthenticationUser This patch has been made by a friend and can be found here: http://ldappubkey.gcu-squad.org/ Nevertheless, you will need, openldap librairies & includes to compile the sshd, so I am not aware if this can compile on cygwin. I have already seen, an openldap for cygwin effort but I do not know if there are up to day, nor where you will find them. You will *need* to compile openldap first before, trying to patch openssh -portable.
