121 lines of email, with only one line of new content, and on the wrong

All true and a very good point. But even more important is the advice will certainly keep 'sshd' from running as a daemon now. I understand why people try this and why they recommend it but I really wish there was a way we could keep people who don't understand the differences of switching users on Windows compared to Linux from giving out advice like this...
