Strange problem wiith Cygwin ssh


Hi,
I'm new to this list...and Cygwin, so sorry if this is
an old problem...bit iguess there's no better place to
get cygwin answers than this list :-)
Here's my problem-  I have 2 Win2K Adv Server machine
with NTFS drives running Cygwin. sshd is running on
both.CYGWIN=ntsec. I have run ssh-keygen to generate
keys and have set up to be able to log in without
password... I CAN log in and run most programs like
cmd etc, but running a certain setup.exe fails with
$?=67....However if i use password authentication
instead of the keys for ssh, setup.exe runs
successfully...Note however that both ways of
authentication allow me to run other programs...the
user i use is part of "Administrators " and can "log
in as service" and "act as part of OS" on both
machines... I then tried creating a local user who is
only part of "Users" and tried running setup.exe from
that id. It failed with error 67 again. This leads me
to believe there is some problem with the RSA
authentication????Here is what i did to set up
password-less login - On one machine , i ran
ssh-keygen -t rsa -P "". then copied id_rsa.pub to
authorized_keys and copied the 3 files to ~/.ssh
directory... Also copied ALL THREE files to ~/.ssh for
same user on the other machine... Also,
StrictHostKeyChecking is set to "no" in ~/.ssh/config
file.
Thanks in advance for your help.
