I've re-installed cygwin on a fresh virtual machine (offline install) and have tried running: 'ssh-host-config' -- still no echo from the terminal '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.
My environment variables below: Variable:Home Value: C:\ Variable: Path Value: C:\cygwin\bin Variable:TEMP Value: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp Variable:TMP Value: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp 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?
