Re: SSHD Issue Windows 2003 64 bit

Typing 'set -x' into the 'bash' shell before running the above might provide some helpful debugging feedback info for you.

'cygrunsrv -S sshd'  -- cygrunsrv: Error starting a
service:OpenService:  Win32 error 1060:The specified service does not
exist as an installed service.
'net start sshd' -- the service name is invalid.  More help is
available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185.

Not surprising since 'ssh-host-config' didn't run/run correctly.


My environment variables below:
Variable:Home
Value: C:\

Remove HOME. You don't need it.


Variable: Path
Value: C:\cygwin\bin

You should have a little more than just this. Windows system paths should also be in there. Did you edit the path?

Variable:TEMP
Value: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp
Variable:TMP
Value: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp

Remove these.


I have re-created the passwd file and group file via our previous
conversations.  What other steps could I take to ensure SSHD to run as
a service on Windows Server 2003 r2 64bit?  Any other ideas?

I don't have time to check through the archives to see if we've been over this route but it seems to me like we need to look at your configuration. Read and follow the instructions found at this link:
