This package describes important Cygwin specific stuff concerning OpenSSH.
The binary package is usually built for recent Cygwin versions and might
not run on older versions. Please check http://cygwin.com/ for information
about current Cygwin releases.
==================
Host configuration
==================
If you are installing OpenSSH the first time, you can generate global config
files and server keys, as well as installing sshd as a service, by running
/usr/bin/ssh-host-config
Note that this binary archive doesn't contain default config files in /etc.
That files are only created if ssh-host-config is started.
To support testing and unattended installation ssh-host-config got
some options:
usage: ssh-host-config [OPTION]...
Options:
--debug -d Enable shell's debug output.
--yes -y Answer all questions with "yes" automatically.
--no -n Answer all questions with "no" automatically.
--cygwin -c <options> Use "options" as value for CYGWIN environment var.
--port -p <n> sshd listens on port n.
--user -u <account> privileged user for service, default 'cyg_server'.
--pwd -w <passwd> Use "pwd" as password for privileged user.
--privileged On Windows XP, require privileged user
instead of LocalSystem for sshd service.
Installing sshd as daemon via ssh-host-config is recommended.
Alternatively you can start sshd via inetd, if you have the inetutils
package installed. Just run ssh-host-config, but answer "no" when asked
to install sshd as service. The ssh-host-config script also adds the
required lines to /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/services.
==================
User configuration
==================
Any user can simplify creating the own private and public keys by running
/usr/bin/ssh-user-config
To support testing and unattended installation ssh-user-config got
some options as well:
usage: ssh-user-config [OPTION]...
Options:
--debug -d Enable shell's debug output.
--yes -y Answer all questions with "yes" automatically.
--no -n Answer all questions with "no" automatically.
--passphrase -p word Use "word" as passphrase automatically.
Please note that OpenSSH does never use the value of $HOME to
search for the users configuration files! It always uses the
value of the pw_dir field in /etc/passwd as the home directory.
If no home diretory is set in /etc/passwd, the root directory
is used instead!
================
Building OpenSSH
================
Building from source is easy. Just unpack the source archive, cd to that
directory, and call cygport:
cygport openssh.cygport almostall
You must have installed the following packages to be able to build OpenSSH
with the aforementioned cygport script:
zlib
crypt
openssl-devel
libwrap-devel
libedit-devel
libkrb5-devel
Please send requests, error reports etc. to cygwin@cygwin.com.
Have fun,
