If I understand this correctly, it is the ssh client which quits
abruptly. Error 126 is "The notorious error 126 (ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND)
when loading DLL/DSO's in Win32" (first hit when googling "Win32 error
126"). However, WSAGetLastError is in ws2_32.dll, which is part of
Windows. But, being a 32-bit dll in a 64-bit Windows, maybe it's in
another directory which is not on the path. Check the folder of
ws2_32.dll

Were you connecting from exch64 to exch64 ?

Hope this helps,
Csaba
