Cygwin is no service and has nothing to do with that file. What you want is restarting the sshd service. `net start' and `net stop' or `cygrunsrv' are your friend.

Thanks a lot. Btw: Is there a way to "restart" Cygwin, so changes in such a file take effect without restarting Windows?

How to force passfile-login via SSL?
Hello! Cygwin's SSH is the only incoming contact point of our server with the Internet, the rest protected by a firewall. Because our passwords are potentially weak (=short), and also to give remote-access to only a limited set of users, I want to configure Cygwin to allow connections with SSH only when they try to log in via a keyfile. (So NOT via Username/Password of any NT-User). How can I achive this? Thanks a lot, Ralf S. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
