I have been running sshd on Cygwin for over a year now. I always keep
my Cygwin installation up to date.
Recently, remote ssh connections into the Cygwin box have been
disconnecting. It is very inconvenient! I see an error message in the
Windows "Application" event log:
[23910] sshd
Type: ERROR
Computer: OWL
Time: 2005-07-14 2:05:34 PM ID: 0
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
sshd : PID 936 : fatal: Timeout before authentication for xxx.xxx.xxx.107
[23909] sshd
Type: ERROR
Computer: OWL
Time: 2005-07-14 2:05:34 PM ID: 0
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
sshd : PID 3520 : fatal: Timeout before authentication for xxx.xxx.xxx.107
In the above, xxx.xxx.xxx.107 is the address of the remote machine.
On the remote machine, "ssh" is invoked as:
sh -l david `cat $HOME/owladdress.txt` \
-D 12345 \
-L 465:guess.obscured.net:465 \
-L 995:guess.obscured.net:995 \
-L 23456:localhost:23456 \
-N \
"$@"
This is a recent problem. It could be a network issue, but I'm
concerned that the OpenSSH packages under Cygwin might be in trouble.
