I run cygwin/sshd on Windows Vista. I used to be able to use ssh to connect to my computer alright, until recently it started not working (I think I installed and removed some other cygwin packages)
For example, I would run
ssh localhost -l kizzx2
after keying in the password, I would be seeing this
Last login: Sat Dec 5 02:44:11 2009 from 127.0.0.1
Connection to localhost closed.
The strange problem is, if I connect using another account, I would be able to log-in alright! Which means:
ssh localhost -l Administrator
This would get me in an interactive shell!.
It looks like that some profile or environment settings of my user's profile is broken or something, but I don't want to re-build my user profile from scratch by creating a new account.
Any ideas?
Update: Just for information, I have tried replacing ~/.ssh
with clean one (let ssh build one from scratch). It didn't seem to do the trick.
Here's the full dump of running ssh
with -vvv
:
$ ssh localhost -p 22 -vvv
