How To Install Openssh
Install Cygwin in your Windows machine and be sure to have the following two modules installed: • OpenSSL • OpenSSH After Cygwin is installed, launch Cygwin default BASH shell in administrator mode. At the command prompt enter command: $ssh-host-config Now you will be prompt for a few yes/no type questions as below: When asked – “should privilege separation be used.” Please enter “YES”. As it is on by default in standard installations of OpenSSH When asked – “new local account ‘sshd’?” please enter “Yes” When asked – “Do you want to install sshd as service”- Please enter “Yes” When asked – “Enter the value of CYGWIN for the daemon” please enter “ntsec” Finally you will see some output which on the screen and you will be told that cyg_server account will be used with sshd service. When asked – “Do you want to use a different name”, please enter “no” Again when asked – “Create new privileged user account ‘cyg_server’?”, please select “no”. This step will generate an error however that is expected. When asked – “Do you want to proceed anyway?” please inter “yes”. This way SSHD server will run as “SYSTEM” privilege user and that is what we expected.
