Jeffrey,

It appears  that the public key authentication is failing.  I am assuming
you are using SSH protocol version 2 since you do not have a key in
/home/jhood/.ssh/identity.  Do you have both dsa and rsa keys in
/home/jhood/.ssh/id_rsa and /home/jhood/.ssh/id_dsa?

It would be helpful if you ran the sshd service in debug mode by passing
the -ddd argument.  Are you sure that you copied the public key
corresponding to the correct private key?

I am running XP Professional with cygwin 1.3.22 and openssh 3.6.1p1-2 and I
have no problem using public key authnentication using the openssh client or
using Putty.

Good luck,
Mark
