Re: 1.7.0-51: Problem using ssh public/private key authentication


Hello,

I have encountered same problem after upgrading to 1.7.x. First to say that
I'm not so familiar with all of that.

I was running a ssh-server and connect with Putty to my server using a
tunnel. Everything works fine till today. After upgrading to 1.7.x and
trying to connect to my server I get the following message:


2 [main] -bash 3776 C:\CygWin\bin\bash.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't
dynamically determine load address for 'WSAGetLastError' (handle
0xFFFFFFFF), Win32 error 126

Tried to set up new sshd but no change.

Any ideas?

Happy X-Mas. :)
