Re: sftp-server -h succeeds on cmd, fails on mintty

Hi,

I'm experiencing a wider problem with sftp'ing to/from a Cygwin sshd
service. However as a starting point into debugging, I've identified a
simple failure in the sftp-server that may give an indication into the
wider problem.

When I ran just a simple usage argument to sftp-server in a mintty
session, the command failed:

sbaddah@*********** ~
$ /usr/sbin/sftp-server -h; x=$?; echo $x
127

This works fine for me from mintty. Just a shot in the dark but can you try it with a local user? How about a local user that's part of the local Administrators group?
