Therefore it becomes imperative on the Windows side to match username case exactly and we need to explain this. However I would say that the case of the domain or computername shouldn't matter? I just tested with cygwin1.dll (13 Feb 2019) and this worked: ssh COMPUTERNAME+username@computername however this didn't work: ssh computername+username@computername Am I not understanding something?
