Re: SSH2 Server for Windows ?

[Noel L Yap]

Actually, is it possible to have two copies (one for the ssh executables and one
for other executables) of cygwin1.dll in memory?

Thanks,
Noel

I'm confused then.  What is libcygwin.a?  I'd at least feel more at ease if I
knew /why/ the cygwin1.dll dependency can't be removed and what the difference
between libcygwin.a and cygwin1.dll (besides static vs dynamic) are.

Thanks,
Noel

There is no way to get rid of the cygwin DLL dependency and it's
extremely unlikely that you'll be able to eliminate the need for the
Windows DLLs.

libcygwin.a is a standard import library used to provide references for
linking in a DLL.  If this is still confusing I'm sure someone will
respond with references to tutorials on the subject.

There is no facility for loading cygwin statically because it has never
been developed.  It is not technically infeasible but it isn't easy
either.

Making the changes in "configure" was enough to get sshd2 working!

Now, I've tried building the executables with "-lcygwin" as part of my link
command, but it still requires cygwin1.dll along the path.  Does anyone know how
I can get rid of shh's dependency on cygwin1.dll (and all other shared
libraries)?

Thanks,
Noel

I've been able to use cygwin to build and run sshd2 (ie sshd-2.1.0 -- I'll
try
sshd-2.1.1 today) (although it may not be that secure since it uses the
cygwin
dll -- I'll see if I can statically link in cygwin later on).  I'm able to
ssh2
to the NT box and execute a command (eg "ssh2 nt-box pwd"), but I'm not able
to
do a plain ssh2 into the NT box -- I keep getting "Failed to allocate pty!".
I've gone through a lot of sites already saying to:
set CYGWIN=tty
grant rights to the user running sshd

but I've had no luck.  If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.  Does
it
have to run as a service?  How do I set it up to run under inetd?  What are
the
problems with this?  What are my alternatives (besides not using NT :) ?

   Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has tried installing the SSH2 Server software for
Windows  ?   (Not the client software.)

I went to the following URL:   http://commerce.ssh.com/

They don't seem to have it.  Can any verify this.  I don't think there is a
binary file for SSH2 to act as the
Server for incoming ssh connections for the Windows O.S..  I hope I'm wrong,
if
so where can I download it ?

Thanks.

RE: SSH2 Server for Windows ?

[Noel L Yap]

I'm looking through Sergey's diff.  I notice that he's changed configure (by
removing a particular test) so that SSH uses the function definitions in
pty-ptmx.c.  I'm wondering if it's advisable, instead of removing the "test -c
/dev/pts/0", to "ln -s /dev/ptmx /dev/pts/0"?  It would certainly make the test
pass, but I don't know what other ramifications it may have.

Thanks,
Noel
