Is it possible to modify Cygwin sshd to support logins into user SYSTEM?
No modifications needed.
Run ssh-host-config and answer "no" to strictmodes.
mkdir -p ~SYSTEM/.ssh
ssh-keygen
cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.puv ~SYSTEM/.ssh/authorized_keys
You can now log in as SYSTEM and correct the permissions of the SYSTEM's
home directory, .ssh, and the files in .ssh.
Once the permissions are sane you can run ssh-host-config again.
I tried that for Windows sshd, but only got a
fatal: ga_init, unable to resolve user system
in the logs.
How can I do the same for Windows sshd too?
Do a security lookup for user SYSTEM to get host\user required on your system.
Read the Windows SSHD instructions to find out where settings are stored - maybe
in the registry for services - and what parameters and values are valid?
