I've been able to finally get into the C:/cygwin/var/empty/.ssh directory which used to be restricted before, but now I've only gotten into the directory to find out that the file Known_Hosts is only readable to Admin/my account and Read and Write priveleges are set to an Uknown Account. I am running Windows Vista , and please help me as this is frustrating me and I don't want to reinstall Windows just because of this one file. I've attempted to give read and write permissions to every one, to administrator accounts, etc... but it wont let me. -- 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/
