The CYGWIN sshd appear correctly on the services list but refuse tu run. Here is my sshd configuration: =========== [/home/ric] ssh-host-config Overwrite existing /etc/ssh_config file? (yes/no) yes Generating /etc/ssh_config file Overwrite existing /etc/sshd_config file? (yes/no) yes Privilege separation is set to yes by default since OpenSSH 3.3. However, this requires a non-privileged account called 'sshd'. For more info on privilege separation read /usr/share/doc/openssh/README.privsep . Should privilege separation be used? (yes/no) yes Generating /etc/sshd_config file Warning: The following functions require administrator privileges! Do you want to install sshd as service? (Say "no" if it's already installed as service) (yes/no) yes Which value should the environment variable CYGWIN have when sshd starts? It's recommended to set at least "ntsec" to be able to change user context without password. ntsec tty The service has been installed under sshd_server account. To start the service, call `net start sshd' or `cygrunsrv -S sshd'. Host configuration finished. Have fun! [/home/ric] cygrunsrv -S sshd cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService: Win32 error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure. [/home/ric] net start sshd System error 1069 has occurred. The service did not start due to a logon failure. ======================================== Anyone has any ideas?? -- 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/
