With previous installations of Cygwin I redirected SSH to alternate home directories by editing the path in the etc/passwd file.
Specifically, I replaced
:/home/user:/bin/bash
with
:/cygdrive/path_to_alternate_home:/bin/bash.
I tested this with copSSH and it seems to work fine. Is this method not recommended for copSSH? Might it cause unforseen problems? If so, is there an alternate preferred method?
Hi,
If it works for you, ıt's fine :-)
