I have no idea to use a different user on cygwin than my windows domain
root. Should I just edit the /etc/passwd and create a new user pointing to a
new cygwin_home -> /home/new-user?
So I keep trying it with the my dom-root account.

okieh; I did the connection using -v with ssh and autossh. Looking to both
outputs I see a big difference

ssh:

After the connection is established somehow the autossh don't recon the
known host thing and brings the error with /dev/tty......

sorry, for the output; I tried to make a diff of the two output files in
front but that gave not the full picture....

much thx;
H.
