This is not a compatibility problem between cygwin/openssh versions. I
am now seeing the problem just trying to ssh from plum to plum (an XP

Anyone have it working? Anyone able to get it working without problems?
Works fine here. It appears that the issue is the configuration on
plum's server. Some things to check:
1) make sure that you have opened port 22/tcp in plum's firewall
2) make sure that /etc/hosts.allow includes the line 'sshd : ALL' (or
'sshd : ALL : allow'
3) for localhost testing (e.g 'ssh localhost' on plum) add the following
to /etc/hosts.allow *before* 'all : PARANOID : deny'
'all : localhost 127.0.0.1 : allow'
or 'all : localhost 127.0.0.1 [::1] : allow' if you're using cygwin-1.7.
4) You might consider installing the syslogd or syslog-ng service on
plum. Shut down sshd, run 'syslog-config' or 'syslog-ng-config', then
'cygrunsrv -S syslogd' or 'cygrunsrv -S syslog-ng'. THEN restart sshd.
Now, you can try to ssh to plum, and tcp_wrapper errors will be reported
to plum's /var/log/messages, as well as some other sshd errors.
