Hi, I have a couple of Windows 7 machines set up as OpenSSH servers. Both are current with windows updates. Both machines have identical cygwin versions (2.0.4-1). I have tried to make the sshd configuration identical on these two machines, following the instructions on http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/41560/how-to-get-ssh-command-line-access-to-windows7-using-cygwin
I have set up the client machines, generated rsa keys, and copied the public keys into the authorized_keys file on the server. Now I can log in to both machines without providing a password. So far so good. When I ssh log in to machine A and check the id that I am logged in with, I get: uid=197608(User) gid=197121(None) groups=197121(None),114(Local account and member of Administrators group),544(Administrators),545(Users),4(INTERACTIVE),66049(CONSOLE LOGON),11(Authenticated Users),15(This Organization),113(Local account),4095(CurrentSession),262154(NTLM Authentication),405504(High Mandatory Level) which is what I need in order to interact with some other resources on the system. When I ssh log in to machine B and check the id I get: uid=197608(Owner) gid=197121(None) groups=197121(None),11(Authenticated Users),66048(LOCAL),66049(CONSOLE LOGON),4(INTERACTIVE),15(This Organization),545(Users),4095(CurrentSession),544(Administrators),405504(High Mandatory Level) However, if on my local client if I remove the private key from the .ssh directory and ssh login again, this time having to specify a password, my session will join the "Local account" group as I want. Is there a configuration that I am missing in order to get machine B to join the "Local account" group when I log in using an rsa key? What could be different between the two machines?
