Subject:	sshd sessions hang after cygwin1.dll 3.0.7
To:	cygwin AT cygwin DOT com
X-IsSubscribed:	yes

I have created an OpenSSH installer for Windows users:

https://github.com/Bill-Stewart/Cygwin-OpenSSH

Basically it includes only the minimum files from Cygwin needed to run
OpenSSH and has some additional conveniences (the foremost of which is
to automatically install the service).

The problem:

When I use cygwin1.dll versions newer than 3.0.7, sshd.exe hangs
whenever establishing a connection. Following is the output from 'sshd
-d':

The only resolution is to forcibly terminate the spawned copy of sshd
(the one spawned by the 'sshd -d' process).

Server is running Windows 10 v1909.

I have tested, and the hang occurs in all versions of cygwin1.dll after 3.0.7.

When I revert back to cygwin1.dll 3.0.7, the problem does not occur,
and the connection succeeds.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Bill
