Corrina, could you have a look at this please? All Cygwin syslog entries are looking like this due to the missing message entry in the DLL. Nobody volunteered for a patch so far since nobody cared enough. The information is right there at the end of the entry. And it's definitely not the right way, to create such a message entry for each and every application Since it's not an OpenSSH bug, it doesn't belong here. Therefore I set the status to invalid. Mass change of RESOLVED bugs to CLOSED For posterity: the register_sshd_messages.cmd script at http://opensource.wellbury.com/projects/windows_sshd_block/ implements the described solution. (Note the registry key is ...\Application\sshd not OpenSSHd) |
Due to a lack of a messaging dll for the cygrunsrv host and sshd service, all event log entries contain this error message before the actual sshd message : > Source: OpenSSHd > Type: Information > Event ID: 0 > The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( > OpenSSHd ) cannot be found. The local computer may not > have the necessary registry information or message DLL > files to display messages from a remote computer. You > may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve > this description; see Help and Support for details. > The following information is part of the event: > OpenSSHd : PID 1512 : `OpenSSHd' service stopped. to fix it ,create a resource file with message and categories entries and insertion string tags, compile it and link it to a dll. and add the proper registry keys in : HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application\OpenSSHd
