On aWin 2003 Server, I got the message
'Setuid : 500: Not permitted' when trying to login using RSA PK mechanisms.
Login/Passwd works just fine, but using a PKey won't work.



That can be found in the mailing list archive already. E.g. http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-07/msg00684.html

I found out the following;


create a special account for this, which is member of the admins
group and has the additional user privileges "Create a token object",
"Replace a process level token" and "Logon as a service".  Probably
it makes sense to remove other privileges from that account, e.g.
the right to logon locally or so.

my (dumb ?) question is : where do we define such parameters ?


And if I get the thing correctly, sshd sould still run the same way (under the sshd user account with local sys privileges) but we should connect using this newluy created user account to log in .. am I right ?
