Hi all,
I tried to ssh to my cygwin box today and was unable to connect. It
seems the sshd service can no longer run, for reasons that mystify me:
# net start sshd
System error 1069 has occurred.
The service did not start due to a logon failure.
I wasn't aware of having changed anything; would it be advisable to
just
reinstall sshd from setup.exe and/or sshd_host_config, or is there
some
simple troubleshooting I might do?
reinstall is not the way.
Likely something reset the cyg_server privileges.
Try to re-enable them with
editrights -u cyg_server -a SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege
editrights -u cyg_server -a SeCreateTokenPrivilege
editrights -u cyg_server -a SeTcbPrivilege
editrights -u cyg_server -a SeServiceLogonRight
editrights -u cyg_server -a SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege
No luck, the same error still occurs. However, now that you mention
it, I
did play with cygserver settings while trying to install pgsql a
while back.
Is there a way to view the privileges to see what I may have broken?
$ editrights -u cyg_server -l
SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege
SeCreateTokenPrivilege
SeTcbPrivilege
SeServiceLogonRight
SeDenyRemoteInteractiveLogonRight
Mine has all those, plus SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege (possibly thanks to
the above from Marco).
It seems that I managed to de-configure sshd somehow. There's no
sshd_config in /etc/ (just the skeleton in /etc/defaults/), and
sshd-host-config doesn't seem to exist, either. So, I blew away the sshd
and cygrunsrv services and their associated users and re-ran
ssh-host-config. All is well now... except that now an enormous ascii
art hippo greets me at login. Ick.
Thanks,
Ryan
