Connection reset by peer error using cygwin on windows to connect minix via ssh
You have to allow connections within your own subnet in the Cygwin /etc/hosts.allow
. Add a line like this to your /etc/hosts.allow
on the Cygwin machine:
ALL : 192.168.123.0/24 : allow
and in your case, you'll need to add the localhost
like so:
ALL : localhost 127.0.0.1/32 [::1]/128 [::ffff:127.0.0.1]/128 : allow
The last line should have come with a stock Cygwin installation so it would be strange if you had to add it.
It matters where you enter it. You will have some DENY
entries and you should put it above those, but it should work if you put it with all of the other ALLOW
statements.
