PublicKey logon failures


I've got the latest cygwin (1.3.12-2), gzip (1.3.3-3), ssl (0.9.6d-1), and ssh (3.4p1-4) packages.
Using ntsec, privsep, no strictmodes. NTFS on Windows 2000 in a Windows 2000 domain.

I've done more tests with various changes in config/owners/acls. (BTW, Setuid before opening authorized_keys is definitely failing).

Results
SSHD Running as LocalSystem -> Password auth works, Public key fails (original test)
SSHD Running as member of local admins group -> Password auth fails, Pubkey works for a local administrator only
SSHD Running as local admin + Act as OS, etc. -> Password auth works, Pubkey works for a local administrator only

All public key failures have the same messages like below (DEBUG3)

Date: Fri, 05 Jul 2002 15:25:21 -0700
Problem: Successful RSA authentication is ignored?
