I tried the same thing on XP and it works. So it's definitely something wrong with 2003 server, either with 2003 server itself or SSHD configuration. I am not trying to get GUI working. The idea is basically to be able to run remote build on windows (devenv) from Linux box and through SSH. I would expect something like "ssh derek AT mywindows-pc do-win-build.sh" to work on windows 2003 server. I checked the opensshd service on my 2003 server. it seems the Log On property needs some clarification here. I set it to This account: ./sshd_server. the sshd_server is a windows local account. While i tried to change this setting to Local User. Regardless what i put in there, the service won't start. Just wonder what should be the right setting for Log On. thanks Derek On Nov 20, 2007 11:23 AM, Dave Korn wrote: > On 20 November 2007 19:05, Derek Lei Liu wrote: > > > Thanks Dave for instant response.
