Dear Cygwin community,

some of our server show the following error during login by SSH:

3 [main] sshd 5744 spawn_guts: CreateDesktop failed, Win32 error 8

This error message occurs at the console of the SSH client. It happens 
only after a reboot of the SSHd running server.

After logon as an administrator at the Windows-Console (e.g. by RDP) of 
the server, which runs the SSHd service, everything works fine. 

We are running:

Cygwin:         CYGWIN_NT-5.2 d20of001 1.7.0(0.200/5/3) 2009-02-20 17:20 
i686 Cygwin
OpenSSH:        OpenSSH_5.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8j 07 Jan 2009

Thanks a lot in advance and

best regards

Carsten Porzler
