Please use POSIX paths (i.e. /cygdrive/d/junk/test1.txt).

It appears you're getting an old version of bash when you login via scp.  It's
not obvious from your cygcheck output where that's coming from but you may
want to check where '/etc/passwd' has set your home directory and if you can
get there with a simple ssh to that machine (since your home directory is
clearly a network drive, possibly with restrictive permissions that could
also be causing you problems).  Making sure that you see the current
Cygwin environment that you installed and deleting any left-over old tools
will likely help allot.
