Hi,
I have a fresh install of Cygwin with all the latest packages. OpenSSH
2.9.9p2 is among them. It is setup to run as a service.
Password authentication for any user works fine. RSA, too, works fine
provided I am running it _as the user I want to login with_. Otherwise
the server simply rejects the key I give it. Is this normal?
I have StrictModes set to 'no' temporarily in my sshd_config. It isn't
helping...
Later tonight I'm going to try and run it under my own account and then
login as someone else to see the debugging output. For now I know that
it doesn't work for anyone at all when it's running as a service (which
I believe runs as the system account), and that it works fine if I run
it with my account and login with the same.
Has anyone else encountered this?
David
