Openssh 3.0.2-p15: Can't validate public key when accesing from cron

[Pablo Milano]

I am using Cygwin with openssh 3.0.2p1-5 and openssl 0.9.6c-2
The sshd is running in a windows 2000 server computer.
I use rsa keys to authenticate the users who access the ssh server from
linux machines (kernel 2.4.18).
Authentication works fine if the "ssh -i user.key user@server" is run from a
linux console, but it fails if the same command is run from cron.
The following error is returned to the standard error console: "Host key
verification failed."

This happens only when trying to connect to the cygwin ssh server. It works
fine among linux servers.
Any hint?

Thank you
