- Subject: login not possible on NT but on W2K and XP
Hi folks,
situation:
==========
a heterogenous network with NT(SVP 6a), W2K, XP and several unix-servers. I
would like to skip to any desired server via sshd without password, because i
don't want to take a "bunch of keys" with me. Also the windows-systems have to
be reachable on this way. Not only therefore (but because i like it) i
installed the same cygwin-version (1.5.11(0.116/4/2)) on these systems.
problem:
========
"permission denied" on the NT-System while login works fine on XP and W2K.
The point 1. to 3. shows the behaviour on XP, W2K and NT (in this order).

i figured out, that it isn't really a ssh- but a login-problem. So i tested the
login-behaviour on the 3 systems.

no pw necessary (why!?)

Login incorrect

login not possible
user tos is a domain-user which was announced to cygwins /etc/passwd via
mkpasswd. There are no local users tos.
I think my problem has to do with the user-validation against the domain-server
but i don't know enough about the underlying concept.
Meanwhile i tried so many attempts, read a lot of hints in cygwin-mailing list
and documentation, changed permissions and so on ... but now i'm at my wits'
end.
i would appreciate very much any suggestions
thanks in advance and kind regards,
thomas (aka tos)
