I noticed an anomaly within both 32bit and 64bit distributions of OpenSSH. The package maintainer inadvertently placed the architectures in their opposition. At 1st glance I thought I had clicked the wrong icon thinking I was using 64bit within 32bit's space, and vice-versa.
The latest OpenSSH package from both 32 and 64 bit resources displays the following: FROM 32bit Cygwin (C:\cygwin) TARGET: C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico - winzera@USWSCOWINZERA ~ $ cygcheck -c openssh Cygwin Package Information Package Version Status openssh 6.6p1-1 OK winzera@USWSCOWINZERA /usr/sbin $ ls -l sshd.exe -rwxr-xr-x 1 winzera Domain Users 762397 Mar 18 12:41 sshd.exe winzera@USWSCOWINZERA /usr/sbin $ ldd sshd.exe ntdll.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/SysWOW64/ntdll.dll (0x77480000) kernel32.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/syswow64/kernel32.dll (0x75c50000) KERNELBASE.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/syswow64/KERNELBASE.dll (0x75de0000) cyggcc_s-1.dll => /usr/bin/cyggcc_s-1.dll (0x6ff80000) cygwin1.dll => /usr/bin/cygwin1.dll (0x61000000) cygssp-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygssp-0.dll (0x67480000) cygcrypt-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygcrypt-0.dll (0x44000000) cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll => /usr/bin/cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll (0x68b80000) cygz.dll => /usr/bin/cygz.dll (0x6f940000) cyggssapi-3.dll => /usr/bin/cyggssapi-3.dll (0x6b440000) cygheimntlm-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygheimntlm-0.dll (0x67d40000) cygkrb5-26.dll => /usr/bin/cygkrb5-26.dll (0x71440000) cygasn1-8.dll => /usr/bin/cygasn1-8.dll (0x6a840000) cygroken-18.dll => /usr/bin/cygroken-18.dll (0x6bc80000) cygcom_err-2.dll => /usr/bin/cygcom_err-2.dll (0x70ec0000) cygwind-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygwind-0.dll (0x67140000) cyghx509-5.dll => /usr/bin/cyghx509-5.dll (0x6c100000) cygintl-8.dll => /usr/bin/cygintl-8.dll (0x6fd70000) cygiconv-2.dll => /usr/bin/cygiconv-2.dll (0x6fd80000) cygsqlite3-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygsqlite3-0.dll (0x64d80000) cygheimbase-1.dll => /usr/bin/cygheimbase-1.dll (0x71040000) cygkafs-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygkafs-0.dll (0x65bc0000) cygwrap-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygwrap-0.dll (0x67500000) FROM 64bit Cygwin (C:\cygwin64) TARGET: C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico - winzera@USWSCOWINZERA ~ $ cygcheck -c openssh Cygwin Package Information Package Version Status openssh 6.6p1-1 OK winzera@USWSCOWINZERA /usr/sbin $ ls -l sshd.exe -rwxr-xr-x 1 winzera Domain Users 675859 Mar 18 12:23 sshd.exe winzera@USWSCOWINZERA /usr/sbin $ ldd sshd.exe ntdll.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/SYSTEM32/ntdll.dll (0x772a0000) kernel32.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/system32/kernel32.dll (0x77080000) KERNELBASE.dll => /cygdrive/c/Windows/system32/KERNELBASE.dll (0x7fefd320000) cyggcc_s-seh-1.dll => /usr/bin/cyggcc_s-seh-1.dll (0x3ffcb0000) cygwin1.dll => /usr/bin/cygwin1.dll (0x180040000) cygssp-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygssp-0.dll (0x3ff620000) cygcrypt-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygcrypt-0.dll (0x3fff00000) cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll => /usr/bin/cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll (0x3ffd40000) cygz.dll => /usr/bin/cygz.dll (0x3ff490000) cyggssapi-3.dll => /usr/bin/cyggssapi-3.dll (0x3ffbe0000) cygheimntlm-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygheimntlm-0.dll (0x3ffbc0000) cygkrb5-26.dll => /usr/bin/cygkrb5-26.dll (0x3ff9c0000) cygasn1-8.dll => /usr/bin/cygasn1-8.dll (0x3fff50000) cygroken-18.dll => /usr/bin/cygroken-18.dll (0x3ff760000) cygcom_err-2.dll => /usr/bin/cygcom_err-2.dll (0x3fff10000) cygwind-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygwind-0.dll (0x3ff4c0000) cyghx509-5.dll => /usr/bin/cyghx509-5.dll (0x3ffb70000) cygintl-8.dll => /usr/bin/cygintl-8.dll (0x3ffa40000) cygiconv-2.dll => /usr/bin/cygiconv-2.dll (0x3ffa60000) cygsqlite3-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygsqlite3-0.dll (0x3ff6a0000) cygheimbase-1.dll => /usr/bin/cygheimbase-1.dll (0x3ffbd0000) cygkafs-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygkafs-0.dll (0x3ffa30000) cygwrap-0.dll => /usr/bin/cygwrap-0.dll (0x3ff4b0000) In conclusion: 32bit OpenSSH is in Cygwin64, and 64bit OpenSSH is in Cygwin32. The reason both worked is because I'm running 64bit Windows. If I was running 32bit OpenSSH will generate an immediate error. IMHO I'd do a sanity check for both architecture distributions to ensure 64bit packages are not embedded within 32bit environment.
