Hello the list, Thanks for all the work and effort put into this. Since two days i cannot login anymore (password less) with ssh into my server
Server is : Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials / 6.3.9600 N/A version 9600 Cygwin was not up to date, but I have since updated it CYGWIN_NT-6.3 [MACHINE NAME] 3.0.3(0.338/5/3) 2019-03-09 19:12 x86_64 Cygwin I can login via password, it work and lets me in. But if i tried with my keys, I get in the event viewer : sshd: PID 3777: fatal: seteuid 1049076: No such device or address I tried googling around, reinstalled multiple times sshd, the user and the service with no luck so far. I was working for several years now. For now I have no clue, so i'm asking what did I do wrong ?
