I'm trying to run cygsshd on my PC with Windows 11 and connect from a

the access rights and mode of the .ssh directory (700 and belongs to
user xxx) and the authorized_keys file (600 and also belongs to user
xxx) and also of the home directory (had to change ownership).
Just bind mount instead of symlinking .ssh and everything should work.
Assuming you have installed CYgwin under your own account, that's even
better than utilizing "StrictModes"

Ich decided to move the .ssh directory to /home/username/.ssh and edited nsswitch.conf to
specify the home directory with "db_home: /home/%U" (all entries in this file
were commented). Now sshd seems to work without deactivating strict mode. If I should
still get problems with something else missing the .ssh directory in the WIndows Users
directory I will try the bind mount.
I do not know how the .ssh got in /cygdrive/c/Users/... because I did not
change anything manually.
Thanks for all the help!
