Re: Does sshd work on Vista?


Hello:

Does sshd work on Windows Vista?


I ran ssh-host-config, but it keeps giving me a pop up that says ssh-keygen.exe has stopped working.

Any ideas?


Thanks, Neil

Neil,


I have sshd running under Vista Home Premium. You can use one of two ways:

1) Run the bash shell as Administrator. Do this by right clicking the Cygwin icon and selecting the "Run as Administrator" menu item. Then, run the ssh-host-config script.

2) The other way involves turning off User Access Control, rebooting, running ssh-host-config, turning on UAC, rebooting. This is what I originally ended up doing. My recommendation is skipping the last two steps here... :-)

HTH,

Mark
