How do I "let" SYSTEM run cygrunsrv? I think that may be the way it's
working now, but I ran ssh-host-config as a user and didn't tell it
anything special. Can I login as SYSTEM to do the ssh-host-config, or
is there some way to tell it to run the service as SYSTEM?
Just for testing, I added to "Create a token object" for the user who
invoked cygrunsrv. That didn't make any difference either.

I do have a /etc/group file created with "mkgroup -l" and a /etc/passwd
file created with "mkpasswd -l" - how can I tell if it is "OK"?
Thanks again,
