No, I had not. I did not know I had to. Well, I ran it, but it asks me if I want privileged separation or not. I searched a little on internet to know what this is. It seems a good architecture, but I am feared that being rather new it introduces new problems. Does it work well now and is there a manual or how to in this context ? If I choose NO, is it dangerous but more simple ? :) Gabier -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Can%27t-get-sshd-to-work-tp32779981p32780552.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
