Hi all,

I've manage to setup sshd as a service on a windows 2000 box, and it all
seemed to be working well.

I can ssh into the box and browse directories etc. without any warning
messages being produced,

however if I try and run a command via ssh then the connection is dropped
immediately after the following error message,
setgid: Invalid argument

e.g.

====
F:\>C:\cygwin\bin\ssh.exe nordj AT localhost
nordj AT localhost's password:

I am at a loss as to why it works when not using a command and fails when
using one.  Does anyone have any ideas?
the passwd and group file are uptodate.

Anyone any ideas?

Please CC me in the reply as I'm not subscribed.
