Cygwin Help needed

[Mike Adkins]

 

After I installed Cygwin syslog-ng, Cygwin ssh isn't working correctly..  

I am unable to change ownership or permissions..  /home is owned by
Administrator, not Cyg_server..  /dev is showing up in the folder list and
had been hidden.. and ssh keys are not working..  only with password.

 

Can you help?

 

Mike

Sorry but this isn't very clear.

Do you mean that sshd was working before, but it doesn't since you
installed syslog-ng? Does it work again if you uninstall syslog-ng?

When you say ssh keys aren't working, please include the output of ssh -v
or ssh -vv that shows the failure, and also the sshd log output, if you can
get it from syslog-ng.

Also please read the guidelines for reporting problems at
https://cygwin.com/problems.html. In particular, please attach output of
cygcheck -svr.

There was already an answer
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2017-10/msg00145.html

asking for more details mentioning the  guidelines for reporting 
problems at  https://cygwin.com/problems.html.
In particular, please attach output of
cygcheck -svr.

If you are not subscribed to the mail list
I assume you have not received that reply.
