RE: Re: OpenSSH starting, but not listening...

["Sawyer, Christopher" <Christopher dot Sawyer at getronics dot com>]

Listen pal...  I didn't subscribe to this list to get bashed, so beat off.
 
I asked for help from the list.  If this is the wrong place, then so be it, put it nicely and I'll take my question elsewhere.  I'm tired of reading through openssh.README, event viewer or the /var/log/messages or even the blank sshd.log files.  They aren't saying anything.  Comparing them to a working server, they are the exact messages, so I would have to believe they would be normal?  I posted a working debug because thats the ONLY one I get when I put it in debug mode.  Read a little further and you'll see that 
 
"If I start the service from the shell directly, it works and listens...just not when the service tries to start it using the sshd_server user as configured by docs."
 
But your too quick to the gun to hit the reply button to bash people rather than help them...
 
 
>>> I've installed the latest from www.cygwin.com <file://www.cygwin.com <file://www.cygwin.com> >

>>>file://www.cygwin.com <file://www.cygwin.com> ? No.
 
No what?  Maybe your text should be longer...   I don't know where file:// came from....
 
and PS.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled many times.

You could improve on the length of your lines. You definetely *should*
improve on that.

file://www.cygwin.com? No.

Aaah, those "configuration docs". You know them. We all know them.

But to be serious: the only relevant "configuration doc" is
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README. If you used something different:
uninstall, reinstall - as you won't get any help on this list.

Do you think there is any sense in sending debug information for a
session /that works/? Why didnt't you send those for the sshd in
service mode?! FYI: sshd logs to /var/log and to the Event Viewer.
