Because when I run ssh-user-config it is taking SYSTEM user as default user name and doesn't prompt to create new user for the purpose of connecting remotely to the target windows host which runs CYGWIN. I think you just need to create a regular windows users, or use one that already exists. I use ssh extensively to connect to various windows accounts and have never touched ssh-user-config. Just ssh and use the windows login and password. It can be an Administrator account. Stephen
