unique ssh user environments


Hi Everyone.

I have configured sshd on my server and it appears to work well.
The problem I am having is that if multiple users login via ssh, they both are running in the same "user space". Sshd is running under a privileged user account instead of SYSTEM.



Here is an example: user "A" logs in via ssh and maps a drive letter to a network share "net use x: \\server\share". User "B" then logs in via ssh as well . User "B" sees user "A" mounted network drive "x". If user "B" disconnects the drive, "net use x: /d", user A and user B are both disconnected from the drive share.


The other strange behavior that is occurring, is that if someone logs onto the console directly while someone is logged in via ssh, the same problems occur.

Is there a way to configure cygwin so that when each user logs in via ssh, they will get their own unique "user environment"?


Any assistance would be appreciated. TIA ------------------------------------------------------------------------ James Below Phone - 216-433-6508 RS Information Systems, Inc.
