YW. :-) Please feel free to expand, clarify, edit, and/or otherwise improve upon the procedure and repost. For example, do steps 5a, 5b, and 5c, run ssh-host-config, do step 5d, and then run 'net start sshd'. The best solution would be to patch ssh-host-config: 2009-06-12 20:44:07 Administrator@p43400e ~ $ which ssh-host-config /usr/bin/ssh-host-config 2009-06-12 20:44:22 Administrator@p43400e ~ $ file `which ssh-host-config ` /usr/bin/ssh-host-config: Bourne-Again shell script text executable 2009-06-12 20:46:33 Administrator@p43400e ~ $ less `which ssh-host-config ` Nice code; patching it to accomplish the chmod/ chown steps would be an interesting and educational challenge. :-) David -- 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/
