OpenSSH - sftp not working for non-Administrator users

After a bit more research on the problem, I found a discussion thread on 
the web discussing a similar problem from 2006. The difference is that 
the thread discusses scp connections dropping immediately after 
non-administrator authentication.

A response to a thread from March of this year indicates that copying 
all of the DLL files from cygwin\usr\bin to cygwin\usr\sbin as a 
workaround. I've copied the DLL files on my server per the workaround 
and now non-administrator users are able to use sftp.

I've attached a copy of cygcheck.out from the server where this is 
happening.
