ssh connection to win xp

ssh connection to win xp

[Jason Michaelson]

i've got the cygnus ssh daemon running on my win xp system. when i attempt
to connect to it, the connection fails due to a bad password. now, i know
full well the password is valid. 

the only really out of the ordinary things i know of with the system is
that i can't chown files to the system account, and my domain controller
is samba-tng on top of linux.

it should be noted that while i can't get cygrunsrv to run sshd as a
service on my work machine, it works great, same username, same password,
different domains obviously, but at work its controlled by an nt pdc, not
a samba pdc.

any insight would be helpful.

thanks

jdm

ok a litle more information for anyone who might be able to help here:

i ran strace on login.exe. here's the interesting output:

 3423 154227669 [main] login 5656 cygwin_logon_user: LogonUserA (jason,
MICHAELSON, password, ...)^M
31136 154258805 [main] login 5656 seterrno_from_win_error:
/cygnus/netrel/src/cygwin-1.3.10-1/winsup/cygwin/security.cc:135 errno
1789^M
  186 154258991 [main] login 5656 geterrno_from_win_error: unknown windows
error 1789, setting errno to 13^M

now, according to the copy of winerror.h that i have, 1789 is
ERROR_TRUSTED_RELATIONSHIP_FAILURE, indicating that the trust relationship
between this machine and the primary domain (which is MICHAELSON) has
failed. to which i say "huh"? i can log in just fine to the machine, so
the trust relationship worked just fine.
