You've left allot for us to infer from your description, including your
Cygwin configuration (sshd and general), how you ssh in (password or
pubkey), and even what vshadow is!  I'd recommend a read through of
the problem reporting guidelines found here:

My WAG is that you're using pubkey authentication.  If so, try password.
