Hi
=A0
I hope this is the right maling list for this issue. I have cygwin sshd ser=
vice=20
installed on windows 2008 server SP2. I setup the cygwin ssh server by answ=
ering=20
yes to all questions asked by sshd-host-config and letting it create the=20
cyg_server user etc.=20

=A0
If I do simple commands then ssh is working just fine(ls, cp etc). But it f=
ails=20
when I am trying to do few system commands from a linux box. E.g ssh=20
administrator AT neptune 'ping 10.10.10.1'
=A0
If I do ping locally then it shows successful ping but if I do it as shown =
in=20
line above the ping gets executed but always returns failure. But reboot wo=
rks=20
fine. Also I noticed that when I use some windows system tools e.g. devcon,=
=20
whether directly or through bat files, the actual execution is fine but the=
=20
command always fails. But if I execute exact same thing in cygwin shell in =
that=20
machine, locally it is successful. I think I am having some permissions pro=
blem=20
which I am unable to figure out. Here is my /etc/passwd file output. Also a=
fter=20
some time if the machine is idle the ssh just stops working and I have to r=
eboot=20
the system. Just stopping and starting the service again does not work.=20
