Re: Connection closed on localhost (windows 2000 Pro)

Sounds like the problem I have. (so no answers here, but perhaps some help
debugging.)

Something I am still wondering about: What does sshd look for in /etc/passwd?

I did just figure out how this:
$ /usr/sbin/sshd -d -d -d

and then in a 2nd shell: $ ssh -v -v -v localhost

You get lots to look at.

But, on my end I am back to not being able to authenticate - I get "Access
Denied" for everything.

Did you find a good HowTo for setting this up? (I found 2 or 3 which I could
only follow so far, till I get to "Start the service from the control panel. "
and I get "error: 1067 process terminated unexpectedly"

When running from the command prompt, I had to subst m: c:\cygwin so that \etc
was off the root.
