I retried that script and it seems to generate the key files each time it is run now. As far as that mySQL thing, I renamed that dll file and will use another program temporarily, until I can figure this thing out. Once I did those two things, I still see an error that looks the same, although the contents of the sshd.log file is now: /var/empty must be owned by root and not group or world-writable. My main trouble with this is that I seem to be having trouble getting the permissions for that directory like it says, I can get it chmod'ed to 744 easily, but I can't seem to get its ownership to root or system either one. I am using a windows 2000 machine, although that may have been in my cygcheck file that I sent. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get this permission thing set.
