Cygwin Bash shell on Windows 2003 Server not working


I am trying to install cygwin on a Win 2003 Enterprise
Edition machine. I followed all you instructions but was not able to
run the cygwin.

I always get an error in Bash.exe call. My Bash shell is not working.
Any help in this regard would be very helpful. I have included the
content of the dump file created when bash failed to start.

I few points to note:

1. I am using Terminal Services to install cygwin.
2. It is Virtual Machine with windows 2003 installed.
3. I do not see the "sshd" user created on the computer.

I really need to get this thing working. Please help me.

I have gone through mostly all the posts on the internet about this
error and tried all the workarounds but it did not help. I found this
post on cygwin forums, which says cygwin does not work on Windows 2003
server. But there are a lot of people using cygwin on windows.

I have also attached output of command cygcheck -v -s.
