This is on an installation using setup today with the latest packages on archive.progeny.net. It's running Win2k Server. I think I've also verified this on my XP HE box at home.
I can happily ssh into my box. $ ssh Administrator@foo Warning: Remote host denied X11 forwarding. Last login: Tue Oct 8 21:01:53 2002 from bar Administrator@LORIEN ~ $ Now, I add the user foo: Administrator@LORIEN ~ $ net user foo bar /add I add the user to the password file Administrator@LORIEN ~ $ mkpasswd -l -u foo >>/etc/passwd And now I can't ssh in anymore: $ ssh Administrator@foo Warning: Remote host denied X11 forwarding. Connection to foo closed. $ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] Warning: Remote host denied X11 forwarding. Connection to 172.16.34.104 closed. $ If I remove the new user foo, I can once again login: Administrator@LORIEN ~ $ rm /etc/passwd; mkpasswd -l | grep -v ^foo >/etc/passwd $ ssh Administrator@foo Warning: Remote host denied X11 forwarding.
