If I set my shell to "/bin/id -a" in /etc/passwd, I'm never able to log
in successfully (I'm sure I typed my password correctly):
C:\cygwin\etc>ssh localhost
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Permission denied, please try again.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
If I set my shell to "/bin/id", I see this:
C:\cygwin\etc>ssh localhost
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Last login: Tue Nov 14 12:09:47 2006 from 127.0.0.1
Fanfare!!!
You are successfully logged in to this server!!!
/bin/id: Permission denied
Connection to localhost closed.
I get "Permission denied" for /bin/sh as well, so it appears that I
can't execute anything in the /bin directory when I try to connect with ssh.
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm pretty much out of ideas at this point.
I've been using a Win2K system until recently, and I'm finding the
whole issue of permissions in WinXP problematic.
Any other thoughts?

working correctly. The permissions on c:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe are ugo+rwx:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 kasper Users 467968 Nov 2 19:22 /bin/bash.exe
and I've given "full control" permission to "Everyone", "kasper", and
"sshd_server" for the entire c:/cygwin directory tree.
I'd really appreciate any pointers anyone can offer.
Try replacing '/bin/bash' with /bin/id -a' in your /etc/passwd, and let's
see who cygwin thinks you are when you log in. Then we can get into looking
at ACLs.
cheers,
