-	mk is a user on a UNIX host.
-	mk has a domain account on Windows.
-	When mk logs on on Windows, his UNIX home directory is mounted on Windows.
-	mk has a PC with CYGWIN and a runnig ssh demon.
-	When mk is logged in on a UNIX console window and trys to get a secure shell on the
PC with the ssh demon, he is prompted for a password
-	When mk is logged in on a UNIX console window and trys to get a secure shell on 
another UNIX host he is not prompted for a password

I have setup ssh demon using ssh-user-config -y, CYGWIN will be set to "binmode ntsec tty".
/etc/group, /etc/passwd "know" mk as domain user with home directory on a net mounted host.

How can I set up CYGWIN and/or sshd that key authentification works fine?
