Well, following the last recommendations I re-installed Cygwin with opensshd from scratch (see also attachment: cygcheck.out) and launched ssh-host-config like this: -------------------------------------------------------------------- $ ssh-host-config Generating /etc/ssh_host_key Generating /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key Generating /etc/ssh_host_dsa_key Generating /etc/ssh_config file Privilege separation is set to yes by default since OpenSSH 3.3. However, this requires a non-privileged account called 'sshd'. For more info on privilege separation read /usr/share/doc/openssh/README.privsep . Should privilege separation be used? (yes/no) no Generating /etc/sshd_config file Warning: The following functions require administrator privileges! Do you want to install sshd as service? (Say "no" if it's already installed as service) (yes/no) yes You appear to be running Windows 2003 Server or later. On 2003 and later systems, it's not possible to use the LocalSystem account if sshd should allow passwordless logon (e. g. public key authentication). If you want to enable that functionality, it's required to create a new account 'sshd_server' with special privileges, which is then used to run the sshd service under. Should this script create a new local account 'sshd_server' which has the required privileges? (yes/no) yes Please enter a password for new user 'sshd_server'. Please be sure that this password matches the password rules given on your system. Entering no password will exit the configuration. PASSWORD=some_nice_password User 'sshd_server' has been created with password 'some_nice_password'. If you change the password, please keep in mind to change the password for the sshd service, too. Also keep in mind that the user sshd_server needs read permissions on all users' .ssh/authorized_keys file to allow public key authentication for these users!. (Re-)running ssh-user-config for each user will set the required permissions correctly. Which value should the environment variable CYGWIN have when sshd starts? It's recommended to set at least "ntsec" to be able to change user context without password. Default is "ntsec". CYGWIN=ntsec tty binmode The service has been installed under sshd_server account. To start the service, call `net start sshd' or `cygrunsrv -S sshd'. Host configuration finished. Have fun! -------------------------------------------------------------------- After restarting the computer connections are refused: -------------------------------------------------------------------- user@host:~> ssh Administrator@192.168.60.99 ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host -------------------------------------------------------------------- .... and in in /var/log/sshd.log appears again the good old song: -------------------------------------------------------------------- 9 [main] sshd 2556 child_copy: linked dll data write copy failed, 0x46C000..0x46C040, done 0, windows pid 2284756, Win32 error 87 -------------------------------------------------------------------- ... but after "Restart Service" from the service console the connection is established. Any further recommendations?
