I've recently installed cygwin version 1.3.17.

When I attempt to ssh to the cygwin host more than once, with the
first connection still active, I get the error message
'setgid: invalid argument' , and then I'm disconnected.

Below is an example of the problem.  The first 'ssh localhost' is
sucessful (which indicates to me that setgid() succeeded), but
the second 'ssh localhost' fails.

This problem is reproducable regardless of the client (localhost
or remote) or the authentication method (keys vs. passwords), or
any mixture there of.  In other words, if I'm logged in once via
ssh, then I cannot log in again via ssh.

I've searched the web and the archives for clues, but I'm coming up
empty.

Thanks,

David
