14.4. Troubleshooting
If
ssh1 or scp1 doesn't work
as expected, use the -v (verbose) option so the
client prints debugging messages as it operates. These messages may
provide a clue to the problem. Now for some specific problems:
- When I run ssh1, it says "You don't exist, go away!"
-
You probably didn't create C:\etc\passwd
as directed. Also, make sure that you don't put drive
specifications (C:) in the passwd file because
the colon will be treated incorrectly as a field separator.
- I can't create a folder called
".ssh" or any other name
beginning with a period.
-
You can't do it with Windows's graphical interface. Use
an MS-DOS shell and the mkdir command
(mkdir .ssh).
- ssh1 says "Could not create directory
/home/.ssh".
-
You forgot to create C:\home.
- scp1 complains that it can't find ssh1.
-
Is C:\usr\local\bin (or wherever you put
ssh1.exe) in your MS-DOS PATH?
- ssh-agent1 doesn't work. It prints Bad
modes or
owner for
directory '/tmp/ssh-smith' and
exits.
-
You're right. The SSH agent doesn't run under Windows, as
it requires Unix domain sockets.
- I can't connect via sshd to my NT account that's in
another domain.
-
That's right, you can't. NT sshd lets
you connect to local accounts only, i.e., in the domain of the local
machine.[178]
- I am still having problems.
