Hello,
Long time cygwin user, but first time trying to get sshd on a windows machine.
I've followed the instructions at http://pigtail.net/LRP/printsrv/cygwin-sshd.html, and all seems fine until I test it:
~% ssh??? $USERNAME@127.0.0.1
ssh: connect to host 127.0.0.1 port 22: Connection refused
I'm pretty sure sshd is running, because if I try to start it I get:
~% net start sshd
The requested service has already been started.
My firewall is turned off.
I am on a VPN, if that makes any difference.
Also, my /etc/passwd has this line:
sshd:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:1006:513:sshd privsep,U-M-HOME\sshd,big-secret_number:/var/empty:/bin/false
Any advice?
