I suspect this is already answered somewhere, but my googling has not brought up an answer.
Environment:
CygWin with OpenSSH 6.6.1p1-3 on Windows 2012 R2. Using the domain administrator account as the target on Windows.
Issue:
When I ssh into Windows from Linux, if I use a password, "powershell -command get-cluster" works. If I use key (store in .ssh/authorized_keys), "powershell -command get-cluster" returns access denied. Simpler commands do not appear to make a distinction and work equally well with password or keys.
