Re: Problems with installer


Here.  Sorry if there is some confusion.  Frankly, considering the number of
installs I think the confusion has been minimal.  As a side note I've many
times been in conversation with a user and suggested that it might be time
to can the package as no longer necessary.  EVERY time they vehemently
protest that the cygwin sshd install is too hard/doesn't work/whatever.  The
bar to entry to a tight sshd install under the cygwin installer may be too
high for most newbies.

Maybe as a compromise I can start using standard cygwin directories.  That
seemed confusing, and would definitely hose up some people that are used to
my current structure, but I'd be willing if it's really causing communal
heartburn.
