Re: Active Directory and the dreaded "Win32 error 1069" starting sshd

I'm trying to set up cygwin sshd on two hosts which are members of the same domain. One server is Windows 2003, the other is 2003 R2. Briefly, the problem is that after installing cygwin on both, I can run "ssh-host-config" on either one, and sshd will work. However, when I try to set up sshd on the other host, I get the error "Win32 error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure."

I'm not sure how to proceed... is there a way to manually create these users as local accounts? The ssh-host-config script is adding them to the domain.

If not that, then is there something simple that I must do on each host to grant the AD users the required rights?

How about starting here: http://cygwin.com/problems.html ?

I'm not sure what's changed since I had the problem. When I was having the problem, there were accounts for ssh_server and sshd created in the top-level Users container in AD whenever I ran ssh-host-config. Only one member of the domain was able to set up sshd at a time. Now when I install cygwin and run ssh-host-config, only ssh_server is set up as a user account in AD. If "sshd" is still created, I'm not sure where. I don't know if that's related to the problem, but that's the only change that I'm noticing.


I'll come back with cygcheck's output if the problem crops up again, but I'm not seeing it now. If someone fixed the package: Thank you.
