ssh connection reset by peer

ssh connection reset by peer

[Greg Holmes]

I can run sshd, but when I test it with ssh -vvv localhost, it doesn't
succeed.  The output ends with:

debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST sent
debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_GROUP
Read from socket failed: Connection reset by peer
debug1: Calling cleanup 0x41a250(0x0)

The syslog is 

/usr/sbin/sshd : Win32 Process Id = 0xFA9DE845 : Cygwin 
Process Id = 0x56217BB : LOG_INFO : Server listening on 
127.0.0.1 port 81.
/usr/sbin/sshd : Win32 Process Id = 0xFA9DE845 : Cygwin

At one point I did have this working with passwordless login.
I _think_ the only thing changed is updating Cygwin with setup.exe.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling openssh and openssl, but that
didn't help.

This is on Win98, with a current Cygwin installation.  Any ideas?
