All went well till I executed $ cygrunsrv -S sshd I got a message "The procedure entry point _ctype_ could not be located in the dynamic link library" Upon searching cygwin maillist and doing things as suggested i reached a mail asking to check cygwin by $ cygcheck -s -v to my supprise I found another "cygwin1.dll" (1998 version) on my system installed by "CheckPoint VPN SecureClient" And it come in PATH before C:\cygwin\bin I rearranged position of all Cygwin dir in the PATH variable. rebooted PC and my sshd start working fine. as a bonus I got similar issue with postgresql also got resolved Cheers Biju CyGNOME - GNOME on Cygwin http://cygnome.sourceforge.net/ KDE-Cygwin - KDE on Cygwin http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/ --- Ben Voigt <bvoigt at kas.com> wrote: How many times has Microsoft claimed to resolve this exact problem? I believe they proclaimed the "End of DLL Hell" a few years back, realized they failed, and starting calling that a feature of every Windows version since. What a joke the MS marketing people are! -----Original Message----- From: "Biju G C" <bijumaillist at yahoo.com> Subject: RE: Issue due to old CheckPoint VPN's "cygwin1.dll" To: ssh-l at erdelynet.com I will jointly blame CheckPoint VPN SecureClient for this They installed cygwin1.dll at c:\PROGRA~1\CHECKP~1\SECURE~1\bin\cygwin1.dll even though I have latest version of cygwin at C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll I feel Cygwin must insist others (the companies who use cygwin in their prouct) should use cygwin setup to install official cygwin components!!! I wasted more than a day for this reason. While i installed postgresql, i finaly gave up assuming i made mistake. when i installed sshd, i was 100% sure i followed http://tech.erdelynet.com/cygwin-sshdtest.html And as I was particular in getting it fixed I started searching archives !!!
