ERROR: A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated

Here's what I just did:

1. created new local administrator account
2. ran mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd
3. removed all instances of server name in /etc/passwd (ie. MYSERVERNAME+)
4. remotely connected successfully
5. successfully ran schtasks, it listed all jobs configured 

I just retried with the other user, where I connect specifying a shared key and got the error message.

For good measure, I changed the password on the problematic user, connected directly without the key and provided the password. I then ran schtasks and it ran fine. It listed all the jobs configured.

It would seem that our issue is related to connecting over SSH using a shared key.

Does ssh with Administrator and running schtasks fail as well?
