I created a new local ID on a 2003 server. Then I logged in with that ID on the server and started a Cygwin session. It gave the message "Your group is currently "mkpasswd" and recommended running mkpasswd and mkgroup. I did that by running "mkpasswd -l" and "mkgroup -l". I dont know if that was needed or not. I was able to successfully ssh from a different server into the 2003 server by providing the password. Now it appears the all of the accounts on the 2003 server are asking for a password (instead of using the keys previously setup and that were working for passwordless authentication).
