You went the wrong way in your configuration, or at least the hard way. Usually you don't need '-e', you just configure syslog. Really easy,=20 with syslog (part of the inetutils package) is a one liner: auth.* /var/log/sshd.log With syslog-ng you have more control but the configuration is longer. [snip] > Can some post a decent and small HowTo? Install the service following /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README;=20 install syslog or syslog-ng, and configure it to use the file you want=20 and (in syslog-ng case) the format you want. --=20 Ren=E9 Berber -- 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/
