Re: SSH Setup Issue

For you, perhaps.
Took a look at '/var/log/sshd.log'.
'/var/empty must be owned by root and not group or world-writable.'
So, 'chown SYSTEM empty'
SYSTEM does not have the proper permissions on Vista for 'sshd' to
run properly. If 'ssh-host-config' did it's job correctly, it set
up a new user for this. Look for 'sshd_server'. If you have this,
then that's the user you want to use above and in all places where
you used 'SYSTEM'.
