I failed to launch openssh on windows10 64bit. After finish the installation, I followed below instructions to setup passwd:
1. Open a command prompt and change to the installation directory (Program Files\OpenSSH is the default).
2. CD into the bin directory.
3. Use mkgroup to create a group permissions file. For local groups, use the "-l" switch. For domain groups, use the "-d" switch.
For both domain and local, it is best to run the command twice (remember to use >>, not >). If you use both, make sure to edit the file to remove any duplicate entires.
mkgroup -l >> ..\etc\group (local groups)
4. Use mkpasswd to add authorized users into the passwd file. For local users, use the "-l" switch. For domain users, use the "-d" switch.
For both domain and local, it is best to run the command twice (remember to use >>, not >). If you use both, make sure to edit the file to remove any duplicate entires.
mkpasswd -l >> ..\etc\passwd (local users)
I have disabled the windows10 default ssh service. So the port 22 is available. After that I tried to launch the sshd server but failed. Below is the error I got.
C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenSSH>net start opensshd
The OpenSSH Server service is starting.
The OpenSSH Server service could not be started.
A system error has occurred.
System error 1067 has occurred.
The process terminated unexpectedly.
How can I configure the sshd on windows10 64bit?
