Hi,
I've been having a few problems with sshd on win2k3.
I'm not using privilege separation and it's running as the local system
account (as I don't need key authentication). It runs but doesn't appear to
listen.
So, I decided to check to see what the log files said. I install sshd with
the following:
$ cygrunsrv -I sshd -d "CYGWIN sshd" -p /usr/sbin/sshd -a "-e -D" -e
"CYGWIN=ntsec tty" --stdout /var/log/sshd.out.log
--stderr /var/log/sshd.err.log
I've added the -e argument for sshd, although this may not be necessary.
So, I would expect to see something (anything!) after starting in either
sshd.out.log or sshd.err.log. However, they are empty.
Adding 'LogLevel VERBOSE' has no effect.
Infact, I can add complete garbage to sshd_config and sshd continues to start
asif nothing had happend. And not work.
Any help would be appreciated.
