RE: SSHD on NT4...


Check services's configuration files permissions. I bet local system account has no read access to the configuration files.

The files I meant are /etc/ssh*, /var/empty and /var/log/sshd.log The file /var/log/sshd.log is empty. Evidently, sshd doesn't get executed.

I am sorry, but I have to. Legacy applications needing CR/LF. If you volunteer to rewrite them, I would be very grateful :-)

Anyhow, I found out that starting ANY service fails (I tried apache and other users), if (and only if) the service doesn't run as Administrator.

Thank you,
