Greetings, Subramanya Narayanaswamy! > I'm Trying to setup Cygwin installation on windows server 2012 and 2016. > I'm installing latest Cygwin version with packages openssh,openssl,zip,unzip.
> When I run Cygwin.bat file and try to configure SSH host service to connect > from Agent server on this windows host, I don't get a prompt to create > CYGWIN user at all. By default it is taking the SYSTEM default user for > authentication. That's how it's done. > But I want create a new Cygwin(let's say agentuser user) using the command > ssh-host-config by running the Cygwin.bat file. Why? > Could you please help on how to setup separate user with right SSH > permission please? It would be great help. What you want to use that user for? If you want to use it for maintenance, just create a user and `passwd -R` it. Then you can use SSH key to login as that user. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Tuesday, August 11, 2020 1:37:01 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
