Ok I have googled this for the last 48 hours trying to come up with a solution to this problem.
I installed cygwin on 3 windows servers. The servers are running 2003.
I can ssh just fine into one of them the other two are having the exact same problem.
The cygwin ssh server is setup to run as a local user who has admin rights.
Here is my ssh output.

Ok so as you can see I am able to connect to the server just fine.
On the windows box it logs the following
Event Type: Error
Event Source: sshd
Event Category: None
Event ID: 0
Date: 5/5/2010
Time: 2:21:27 PM
User: VIDCBPM0001\sshd_server
Computer: VIDCBPM0001
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( sshd ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: sshd : PID 8960 : fatal: setreuid 1009: Permission denied.
debug1: Transferred: stdin 0, stdout 0, stderr 58 bytes in 0.3 seconds
debug1: Bytes per second: stdin 0.0, stdout 0.0, stderr 214.0
debug1: Exit status 255
I cannot find anything on the web that even remotely relates to what it is that I am experiencing here with this.
This is using public key authentication as well. I have checked and double and triple checked folder permissions to the users home folder that I am attempting to hit and everything matches my server that this works on. I appreciate all of your help that you can provide me on this matter and thank you very much in advance.
