Re: Definitely no sshd on FAT32?

FYI, "ntsec" is only ignored for the *disk* volumes, but it is used for a
bunch of other NT-enabled features that have nothing to do with disks
(e.g., user context switching).  However, "ntsec" is on by default now, so
you aren't losing this functionality by omitting it.

Good to know.


Try turning off "StrictModes" in your sshd_config.

Looks like it's already set to no in the installed config. From man sshd_config it looks like StrictModes applies to checks of the home directory and files for the user logging in. I had tried installing the service with '-t' option to sshd, but apparently it still does the perm checks on the host keys even in test mode.
