Igor, Thank you. One of my cygwin registry settings was hosed. It was pointing the bin directory to the directory of some other SSH program I had installed earlier. I don't have the details right now, but I will post them when I get home so the specific solution will be in the archives. I've kept the old cygwin registry entries as cygwin1 so I can compare them and state what specifically was hosed. As for now, I have a working cygwin installation. Thanks again.
