1.3.17: sshd closes terminal immediately after establishing connection

[jurgen dot defurne at philips dot com]

After upgrading from cygwin 1.3.12 to 1.3.17 (also tried 1.3.16, same 
problem),
I cannot establish a remote session anymore.

When running ssh -v some-address to the server with cygwin 1.3.17  and
sshd 3.5-p1, the session is first established (I get login messages), but 
then
immediately closed. On the client side I get the following message :

debug1: permanently_set_uid: 45090/10513
setuid 45090: Permission denied

I have searched and found some answers, but they all rely on the fact that
one has Administrator rights on his WinNT/2000 box, but in our case that 
is
not possible, so I have to run the sshd as a specific user, and I also can
not install sshd as a service. This was no problem with previous version 
of
Cygwin and sshd, so I hope that somehow this possibility has not 
disappeared
from either OpenSSH or Cygwin.

Regards,

Jurgen Defurne
