Misc notes for the future on my setup of the [wiki:UCDavisBuildVM] setup.

 * Most work done on my own account (warmerdam).
 * Accessable as o4w.gdal.org
 * Installed Cygwin normally plus a few packages.

== ssh access ==

 * Enabled ssh login by running "ssh-host-config -y" (make sure it is from a cygwin shell "run as administrator").
 * It prompted for a password for the special admin account created, used my "normal" password.
 * Use the command "net start sshd" to start the service.
 * Then go into Windows Firewall, and select "Allow a program or feature through Windows Firewall", hit "Change Settings", then "Allow another program...", "Browse" and select c:\cygwin\usr\sbin\sshd.exe. 
 * Modify /etc/sshd_config to have the line ClientAliveInterval 60 to prevent ssh sessions from being dropped after a while, and restarted sshd.

== Visual Studio ==

 * After installing VC2010 Express setup a $HOME/bin/cygwin2010.sh script to setup the environment from cygwin.  Note that on 64bit VMs MSVC is in "\Program Files (x86)"
