But I must be missing something there. So here's the question: How can I have a bash shell ask for the password created by running passwd? For example I can reach this system from my other box, using a commercial SSH product, but when it asks for a password, and I type in the one I created, it rejects it. Obviously I need to set something in the shell manager options are set. Be reasonable folks I have not used Cygwin in over a year, and I am rather rusty at it. Oh, and I solved my problem with running SSHD that I posted earlier about, simply by running it directly. Simple enough for my needs. But I must be missing the obvious. ---------- Gregg C Levine landocalrissian atsign att dot net -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
