Denis Golovin commented on JBDS-3671:
-------------------------------------

Mimicked  all the steps and got the same message about fun. All questions seems can be answered with corresponding options (see below) but we always can try pipe input with < textfile
{code}    echo "usage: ${progname} [OPTION]..."
    echo
    echo "This script creates an OpenSSH host configuration."
    echo
    echo "Options:"
    echo "  --debug  -d            Enable shell's debug output."
    echo "  --yes    -y            Answer all questions with \"yes\" automatically."
    echo "  --no     -n            Answer all questions with \"no\" automatically."
    echo "  --cygwin -c <options>  Use \"options\" as value for CYGWIN environment var."
    echo "  --name   -N <name>     sshd windows service name."
    echo "  --port   -p <n>        sshd listens on port n."
    echo "  --user   -u <account>  privileged user for service, default 'cyg_server'."
    echo "  --pwd    -w <passwd>   Use \"pwd\" as password for privileged user."
    echo "  --privileged           On Windows XP, require privileged user"
    echo "                         instead of LocalSystem for sshd service."
    echo
    exit 1
    ;;{code}

and it should be executed in cygwing bash or run commands.

> As parts of the Docker story we need to be able to mount the users home directory into the VM (as docker-machine does as well). Only this way the user can then use Docker mounts to mount for example project directories into a Docker container.
> docker-machine uses the vbguest additions for that, but we still need to determine whether this is possible for us due to potential licensing issues. 
> An alternative approach is to use [sshfs|https://github.com/dustymabe/vagrant-sshfs/] and use ssh to mount the user's home directory into the VM. sshfs, however, requires a running sshd on the host. On Windows I am aware of two ways of doing that
> * Cygwin - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/install.121/e22624/preinstall_req_cygwin_ssh.htm#EMBSC150
> * Win32-OpenSSH - https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH
> I think the Windows ssh port would be the preferred solution, however, when testing it, the connection failed when using sshfs. I was able to simple ssh from the guest (CDK) to the host (Windows), but when using sshfs the connection would just abort. More investigation is required for using vagrant-sshfs with  Win32-OpenSSH. It might just be that the Windows port is not fully functional which would leave use with the cygwin approach.
> Bottom line, if we want to use the sshfs approach as an alternative for vbguest additions, we need to get sshd installed one way or the other.
