I can ssh into the box and browse directories etc. without any warning messages being produced, however if I try and run a command via ssh then the connection is dropped immediately after the following error message, setgid: Invalid argument e.g. ==== F:\>C:\cygwin\bin\ssh.exe nordj@localhost nordj@localhost's password: Last login: Thu Jan 22 10:59:24 2004 from 127.0.0.1 NordJ@NDSUK5446 ~ $ ls James.pdf PUTTY.RND acs.log index.html temp workarea === F:\>C:\cygwin\bin\ssh.exe nordj@localhost ls nordj@localhost's password: setgid: Invalid argument === NordJ@NDSUK5446 ~ $ id uid=18158(NordJ) gid=10513(Domain Users) groups=20164(All UK),20206(Chandlers Ford),12729(Dept Encoders),11854(Dept Eng Development),20107(Dept Stream Content),20125(Dept Systems Div (Ch),20203(Dept TV Platform ( A),10513(Domain Users),14553(MAGIC F),15039(N Dept Eng Develop.),17109(N Dept TV Platforms),15031(N Development R),15011(N Eng Dev CRX),15029(N VHDL R),15028(N Video Server),16027(Phoenix Change),15143(Reachout Hosts),16217(UK Synamedia),16934(Web User Access),20200(Worldwide),0(root),544(Administrators),545(Users) === I am at a loss as to why it works when not using a command and fails when using one. Does anyone have any ideas? the passwd and group file are uptodate. Anyone any ideas? Please CC me in the reply as I'm not subscribed.
