Hi, I'm new to SSH.  I've just installed Cygwin on my Win2000 workstation.
My goal is to connect to it from Linux box and copy files from Linux to
Win2000.  I can connect to my windows box from Linux and browse the
directories.  But I need to set up and automated file transfer and therefore public and private keys.
I think my set up is not complete/correct.
When I run ssh localhost on my win2k  I see a message:
Cannot create directory /cygdrive/h/username: no such file or dir
Well it's looking at h drive and I need it to look at c drive.  Where do I change that?  Also, the authorized_keys file should reside in my home
directory, will that be /cygdirve/c/username/.ssh?
It also says that user name or group hasn't been setup correctly.  What
should I do to set it all up?
Thanks in advance.
N.K.
