Hi, the attached patch is very important for Cygwin. I don't know how I could have missed that for months now :-( I hope this can be included in 2.5.1p2. The pw_gecos field in Cygwin's /etc/passwd contains Windows specific authentication informations which let NT domain users logon to a machine without the need to inform the logon server (sshd in our case) about the name of the NT domain. As a side effect you can have a different name under Cygwin than your...

If one is using the pidfile as an indicator of sshd's status, it is possible to kill sshd before the sigterm handler gets installed, since the pidfile is written out before the signal handlers are setup. The solution is to simply write the pidfile after the signal handlers are setup. Here's the patch. Rob --- sshd.c.orig Fri Jun 22 11:16:41 2001 +++ sshd.c Fri Jun 22 11:18:32 2001 @@

i think our strategy for privsep is to just keep portable sync'd closely with openbsd's tree, even though things will be broken wrt privsep for many platforms. then we just get primary one's working and work out issues as we go along. i'll start to work on sun and hp-ux again tomorrow.
