Subject: 1.3.11: OpenSSH interactive prompt problem
Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2002 16:34:14 -0500

I'm running cygwin 1.3.11 on a windows 2000 server machine.  If I secure 
shell to the machine (openssh 3.4p1) as a non-admin user and try to start an 
ssh session to another machine, ssh won't prompt me for any of the usual 
things (the account password if key authentication fails, permission to add 
host key to known_hosts, etc.).  It just gives permission denied in the case 
where a password is needed and host key verification failed in the case of 
needing to add the host key to known_hosts.

If I run ssh locally on the windows machine, I get the proper prompts and 
everything works great.  Likewise if I ssh to cygwin as administrator.  It 
only happens if I first ssh TO the windows machine and ssh to another 
location needing a password.  Seems like some sort of permissions issue...but 
I've looked everywhere...any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jesse Gilles
