OpenSSH: 5791 [main] sshd 9288! spawn_guts: CreateDesktop failed, Win32 error 8

[Carsten dot Porzler at spb dot de]

Dear Cygwin community,

unfortunately we got on some of our Windows 2003 servers this error 
message while logging on by using OpenSSH

   5791 [main] sshd 9288! spawn_guts: CreateDesktop failed, Win32 error 8

This error message occurs after the server has been rebooted.

If log on once at the Windows console as a user with local admin 
privileges, also the SSH logon works again.

We are using Cygwin CYGWIN_NT-5.2 d20of001 1.7.0(0.200/5/3) 2009-02-20 
17:20 i686 Cygwin and OpenSSH 5.1.

Does anybody know the reason for this failure?

Thanks a lot in advance and best regards

Carsten Porzler
