Subject: My continuing ssh problems

Just a follow-up and question from December's problem.  It looks like the
real problem I was having in trying to communicate between an ssh NT4 box
and an sshd WindMill box has nothing to do with openssh.  If you look at the
text below, I am creating empty passphrases (i.e., hitting enter).  Yet when
I try to change the empty phrase using 'ssh-keygen -p', it doesn't recognise
the phrase.  This problem only exists on the NT box.

In order to minimize differences, I'd set my both boxes as close to
Corinna's setup as possible.  the 1221 openssh version.  CYGWIN=ntsec
binmode tty (WindMill box has binmode tty).  My .inputrc file has pretty
standard stuff:

set meta-flag on
set convert-meta off
set output-meta on
set completion-ignore-case on
set bell-style none
set no_empty_cmd_completion on
Control-K: kill-whole-line
Tab: complete
"\e[3~": delete-char            # Delete
"\e[1~": beginning-of-line      # Home
"\e[4~": end-of-line            # End
"\e[A": history-search-backward # Up
"\e[B": history-search-forward  # Down
"\e[[E": "\C-kcls\n"            # F5
"\e[17~": "\C-klcl\n"           # F6
"\e[23~": "\C-kexplorer /e\n"   # F11
"\e[24~": "\C-kex\n"            # F12

Does anyone have a clue as to where I screwed up?  Or have I uncovered a
readline problem?

Note: If you have used sshd as service or from inetd, don't forget to
      change the path to sshd.exe in the service entry or in inetd.conf.

Configuration finished. Have fun!
