- Subject: OpenSSH: SSHD daemon (as SYSTEM) is partially broken
It appears Cygwin SSHD's functionality is partially broke in the later
versions, where SSHD runs as SYSTEM (no longer cyg_server).
On reboot, any attempt to SSH into the server *before* any previous logon
attempt (RDP/locally/etc) is quickly denied:
debug1: Offering public key: /home/<user>/.ssh/id_rsa
debug3: send_pubkey_test
debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply
Connection closed by <server_addr>
Once an RDP/local login is attempted, regardless of success/failure,
subsequent ssh attempts will progress to the password prompt which
eventually gets us in.
The Event Viewer shows the attached error message, relating to a NULL SID
and 0xC00000BB status.

It was a rather vanilla 'ssh-host-config' run to get it installed: strict
modes = no, no special ssh_/sshd_config settings at this point.
