Thank you, Corinna, for pointing out this information: "Thanks to an early bug report on the cygwin mailing list, I found that you *must* add the -r option when starting the sshd daemon, if you want to use privilege separation. ..." However, since neither cygrunsrv nor sshd has a (documented) -r option (that I can see), I am not clear as to what we are supposed to do. Could you provide an example of what cygrunsrv command line we should use to install sshd. Could this also be reflected in a change to the ssh-host-config script?
