Win2k3's SYSTEM account by default doesn't have all the rights necessary to switch user contexts. One (rather non-obvious, IMO) place to find some details on this is /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README. This information (verbatim from the above README, from "Important note for Windows 2003 Server users" to "Increase quota") should really be part of <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#NTSEC-SWITCH>.
