Subject: sshd privsep user still required?
To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

I installed the OpenSSH server as a service using ssh-host-config, and all
is working.

I'm running Windows 10 (1803).

I renamed the sshd privilege separation (privsep) account to something else
and restarted the sshd service.

Everything still works - no errors.

Is the sshd disabled user account still required?

Thanks,

Bill
