What's more interesting is when I run sshd in a command window (either with -d or not) on the server, instead of via service control manager/cygrunsrv, the problem goes away. I've tried reverting back to the previous cygrunsrv version (1.18), with no change in behavior. I've also experimented with various settings in the sshd service (ntsec, etc). I also suspected that it might only involve commands that interact heavily with the filesystem, but even trying to run "vi" with a small file or no file at all produces the same result. I saw in the list archives some suggestion about anti-virus/firewall software causing problems when forking processes, but i don't have any installed on this machine at the moment. Any thoughts on where I should turn next to troubleshoot? I've attached 'cygcheck -s -v -r' output.
