Re: Still seeing "Win32 error 1062" starting sshd with "cygrunsrv -S" with openssh-4.5p1-1. Suggestions, please?

Hello, Brian.

BK> Hoping that the latest release of openssh would fix the problem I'm
BK> having starting sshd as a service, I updated my Cygwin install to Ms.
BK> Vinschen's latest release, 4.5p1-1.  I then re-ran ssh-host-config.

BK> Unfortunately, I'm still unable to start sshd as a service, either with
BK> or without privilege separation.  I still receive the error message
BK> "cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus:  Win32 error
BK> 1062: The service has not been started.".

BK> I feel like I'm missing something obvious, but I've searched the mailing
BK> list archives and Googled for every combination of Cygwin, sshd, and
BK> cygrunsrv I can think of to no avail.

BK> If anyone out there has any suggestions, I would be very grateful.

Check folders or files (including logfile) permissions first.
I found useful to run FilemonNT from Sysinternals and restart service
to see what happening. Sshd just might be unable to write logfile or
read configuration files.
