I had this error on a Windows Home Server v1 (server 2003 SB base) and the only way I was able to resolve it was to disable the Microsoft firewall on the host and use an external firewall. It seems to be a problem with the Microsoft firewall in my experience. I had tried both opening tcp/22 and the executable (either/or as well as together) to no avail. -- Erik -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
