sshd exits during login attempt on WinXP 2003 x64 -- even with sshd running as service

[Brian Kasper]

Thanks for pointing that out -- I'm really not very conversant with 
Windows security.

While logged in as Administrator, I tried adding sshd_server to the list 
of users with the "Act as part of the operating system" privilege 
(SeTcbPrivilege), but for some reason on my system both the "Add User or 
Group" and "Remove" buttons are greyed-out.

Looks like this is a Windows Security configuration issue, not a Cygwin 
issue; I'll keep trying to resolve it.

Thanks for taking time to respond.
