The easy way to see if it's already installed $ which ssh-keygen /usr/bin/ssh-keygen If no, Cygwin is a bit of a pain when looking for a program that's included in another package. There's probably a better way, but I use the cygwin package search - eg: https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=ssh-keygen and then take a guess as the most likely candidate in the results list and click on that link to see if it's included in that package - eg https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=x86_64%2Fopenssh%2Fopenssh-9.5p1-1&grep=ssh-keygen Regards Lee -- 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
