I have deleted & regenerated both the passwd & group files a couple of
times while playing around with various edits. It is easy to
misconfigure them so that logging in via ssh fails, but when they are
fresh generated via mkpasswd & mkgroup the ssh login succeeds as
recorded in the event log, then the connection is immediately dropped. I
assume that is because bash or sh also immediately exit when run from a
command line under that user. When I run id under anything except the
system account it hangs at 100% cpu. It also makes no difference when I
set the account policies for the user to 'act as system', 'adjust memory
quotoas', & 'replace process token'.

I didn't have any problems at all with the W2k install. This all
happened when I moved to .net server. So far I haven't seen anyone
acknowledge that they have cygwin working under .net server, so I don't
know if the problem is local to my system, or something that MS has
changed in account handling due to their recent 'focus on security'.

I did receive a suggestion to run strace, and I have the output of that
for anyone that would care to look at it. (It doesn't seem like a good
idea to send that to an open list in general, and it is also fairly
long.) Short version below:
