Subject: ssh error 'The descriptor is a file, not a socket'

Hello,

I'm trying to use cygwin's sshd to allow my Linux box to log into my win98
computer using the 'ssh host' command.  The authentication goes OK, but
after 'entering interactive session' I get the following error on the client
side:
	'getpeername failed: The descriptor is a file, not a socket'

I've also seen 'getsockname failed: The descriptor is a file, not a socket'
with some variations of the ssh command options.

On the server side, running with 'sshd -d -d -d' I see debugging messages,
what I think is the possibly-relevant part is at the end of this message.  I
notice some 'unsupported opcode' errors after 'session_pty_req' that seem
suspect, but I'm not sure really what to look for:
	'Ignoring unsupported tty mode opcode 52 (0x34)'
	'Ignoring unsupported tty mode opcode 62 (0x3e)'

I noticed a message from Jeff where he has the same error with a recent
snapshot version of OpenSSH.  I am running OpenSSH_2.9.9p2 and Cygwin 1.3.3.

Thanks for any help,
Kris

P.S.  Here's the other sshd debugging output that may be relevant:
