ssh problems

[Eli Barzilay <eli at barzilay dot org>]

(If this is not the right place for this, please direct me.)

I have recently updated an old Windows setup, including a new cygwing
installation.  We use this machine for nightly builds, using a shell
script that connects to multiple machines and runs the builds
(DevStudio in the Windows case).  With the new cygwin these builds
stopped with a mysterious error -- about 5 hours later I know that the
problem is with sshd and some permission problems.  After a brief look
at http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html, I tried moving my
.ssh away so I have to type a password, and indeed the build works
fine.

So it looks like devstudio is doing something that requires some
permissions that I don't get unless I physically type a password.  Is
there any way to solve this?  I've been trying to play with things
like ssh-host-config and stuff in the global CYGWIN, but nothing seem
to be making it work.

TIA,
