RE: sshd on Windows


Read the readme.  It includes that very warning.  It also has a basic check
in the installer to warn you about installing it over cygwin, if it detects
that cygwin's already installed.  You should have received a warning message
telling you not to proceed.  If not, my apologies.  Feel free to email me
the details and I'll try to figure out what went wrong.

Hmpf. I just tried it. What it does not say is that it is a cygwin in
disguise and overrides all entries in the registry mount table for cygwin.
If you already have a cygwin, the installation quietly ruins it :-(.
