Hi,

Firstly, thank you for scponly. A fantastic utility, works really well and easy to set up.

Secondly, there are a few typos/omissions on the Deploying scponly (w/ chroot) on Cygwin page. They casued me quite a lot of pain (2 days of pain actually) and so I thought I should point them out to you so you can make some updates - save any other people from the same pain...

1. the line that says $sftp-server should actually say $run sftp-server

2. PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin ./configure --enable-scp-compat flag --enablewinscp-compat --with-sftp-server=/usr/sbin/sftp-server --enablechrooted-binary
should actually be 
PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin ./configure --enable-scp-compat-flag --enablewinscp-compat --with-sftp-server=/usr/sbin/sftp-server --enablechrooted-binary

{missing hyphen linking compat to flag)

3. after sed -i 's/-o 0 -g 0/-o Administrator -g Users/g' Makefile there should be an instruction telling the user to execute the $make install command. This is only hinted at above, it is never explicitly stated.






Cheers
