Interesting.  Given the built-in Administrators group doesn't often
[directly] play into permissions on remote systems or cross-system
permission models, I'm not sure where he was going with that.
Regardless, I'll consider it water under the bridge.

Thanks for advice -- I will give it a shot and dive in deeper.   I
think I have two problems I'm interesting in understanding more /
resolving: 1) why doesn't Cygwin think my user has permissions to the
files and 2) how can I get SSH to believe the two "admin" groups on my
files are acceptable.  I'm not optimistic I'm going to get SSH to
change it's behavior so I may need to recompile it to avoid the
check.... which is obviously not desirable from a maintainability
standpoint.

Appreciatively,

Bryan
