ssh: Disconnects from server after authentication key validation

Hi All

I'm new to the list. Unfortunately I arrive with a problem I'm trying to
solve. I installed the Windows openssh port on a Windows XP Professional
machine. I initially setup simple password authentication which worked
well. I tested if both from a Linux and OSX client.

I then setup authorization keys using ssh_keygen. I generated the public
key on one of my *NIX machines and copied it over to the Windows box and
then attempted to connect. I can see that it makes the connection
successfully, authenticates the dsa key, appears to send the environment
and then bam... it disconnects from the server with some "channel 0"
chatter. I don't know what it's failing on.

I tried setting different sshd_config options to no avail. I did set
StrictModes off as recommended. I also turned off PermitUserEnvironment.
I'm still having problems. Does anyone have a suggestion?

TIA - Tim
