In previous releases of openssh (maybe few months back) there was a script/executable ssh-config which does all
necessary for me (generating RSA etc...) so i can get ssh-access to Sourceforge for example.

Now i have update to the latest cygwin release incl. latest openssh.
And there is no ssh-config anymore but there are ssh-host-config and ssh-user-config.
Are these replacements for the previous ssh-config?
Which one must i use for getting ssh-access to Sourceforge for example?
I have tried ssh-user-config, but it only ends with the following error-message:

´------------------------------------
| [bash-2.04] /usr/doc
| > ssh-user-config
| //D/home
| ~ is set in /etc/passwd as your home directory
| but it is not a valid directory. Cannot create user identity files.
`------------------------------------

With previous ssh-config all have worked fine.

What i´m doing wrong?

MTIA,
Klaus

From my point of view? You didn't read /usr/doc/Cygwin/openssh-2.5.1p2.README
