problems setting up openssh 2.9p2-2 with keyfiles

[Hans Sturm]

Hello,

I installed cygwin 1.3.2 and OpenSSH 2.9p2-2 using ntsec and a good 
passwd/group.
the sshd is installed as service under system account with cygrunsrv.
i want to log in with keyfiles only (which is configured in sshd_config) 
and the right authorized_keys and authorized_keys2 are in place with the 
right owner and readable for system.
when i try to login i get asked for the passphrase for my keys but after 
that sshd closes the connection.
in the eventlog i find a entry from sshd stating:
":sshd : Win32 Process Id = 0xAF : Cygwin Process Id = 0xAF : fatal: setuid 
500: Not owner."
I chowned system:system sshd.exe but same problem again.

Any suggestions?

Did you set the env var CYGWIN to contain `ntsec' in the system env
or when installing sshd as service e.g.

	cygrunsrv -I sshd ... -e "CYGWIN=... ntsec ..."

?

If that doesn't help, could you try the latest developer snapshot
of Cygwin?

That's irrelevant. The ownership of the ssh files in /etc is
the problem typically but that seems not to be related here.
