no problem, using PubkeyAuthentication:

  $ uname -a #login shell is bash, started by 'sshing in'
  CYGWIN_NT-5.0 argon 1.5.19s(0.149/4/2) 20051227 16:45:51 i686 unknown unknown 
Cygwin
  $ ssh localhost date
  Wed Dec 28 21:03:43 CST 2005
  $ scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/passwd /tmp/toss
  passwd                                                            100%  704   
  0.7KB/s   00:00
  $

problems w/same tests using PasswordAuthentication:

  $ eval $(ssh-agent -k) #same bash session continuing
  Agent pid 304 killed
  $ uname -a
  CYGWIN_NT-5.0 argon 1.5.19s(0.149/4/2) 20051227 16:45:51 i686 unknown unknown

  $ ssh localhost date
  Enter passphrase for key '/home/adm_tsr/.ssh/id_rsa':
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
  $ : skipped passphrase prompt, entered password; no date shows up
  $ scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/passwd /tmp/toss
  Enter passphrase for key '/home/adm_tsr/.ssh/id_rsa':
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
  $ : skipped passphrase prompt, notice nothing echoed after password was

comments?  can anyone else duplicate this?

Confirmed.  cygwin1-20051216.dll is the last snapshot that worked properly
for this.  Sorry, that's all the input I have for the moment.
