Yes, sure am I using ntsec, as systemwide Variable and also in cygwin.bat:
1: inetd got no TTY:
$ ps -e
      PID    PPID    PGID     WINPID  TTY  UID    STIME COMMAND
      433       1     433        433    1  500 22:33:33 /usr/bin/bash
      390     433     390        532    1  500 22:39:19 /usr/local/bin/perl
      284       1     284        284    0  500 22:54:14 /usr/bin/bash
      528       1     528        528    ?   18 22:55:03 /usr/sbin/inetd
      242     528     528        242    ?   18 22:55:15 /usr/sbin/inetd
      481     284     481        412    0  500 22:55:21 /usr/bin/ps 

2: it is UID 18

3: CYGWIN is:
$ set
[...]
CYGWIN=$'binmode tty ntea ntsec title case_check:strict'
[...]

4: After login with telnet, i'm User SYSTEM, BASH=/bin/sh and
NO CYGWIN at all, login to ftpd fails (failed not before upgrade).
I don't use rsh so i don't know if it is different now.

O.K. i'll try next release.

Hmm, i never turn off ntsec if not trying a new port of some cute software.
