RE: SSH with Windows NT 4.0 (problems with home directory)

        Thansk Jason.

        I looked at the file you talked about and find out the path. I found
out something silly I was forgetting as well. I haven't put a home folder in
my user properties.

        After configure it that, I deleted the passwd file and generate it
again.

        That solved the problem.

        Thanks for your help.

        Regards

Does that directory exist?
If not, try to simply create it at <drive letter>\cygwin\home\ssh02
If that folder name doesn't mean anything to you, check out your <drive
letter>\cygwin\etc\passwd file and check out the next to last item for the
entry of the user ID you are logged in as when running cygwin. Change it
from /home/ssh02 to some directory that exists (make sure to keep the cygwin
directory syntax in mind).
