Well, I still got only 1 copy of cygwin. I installed the other app, tried to
get it to work, then installed cygwin over it to be sure to be up to date
with it. I know that's not a supported way to get cygwin to work, but you
know what desperate admins/proggers can do :)
Due to your remark however, I double checked for the presence of only 1
cygwin1.dll. I also deinstalled copSSH and did a fresh install of cygwin
(cygcheck attached).

I like to think that is normal if CopSSH claims it's a stripped cygwin.

That must have happened in the process while tampering wit hit (remember
'desperate'. Yes I tweaked the registry. Yes I removed the Cygnus entries.
No, I don't feel guilty).

Ok, looks like an ugly typo happened there. It only affects that first PATH
entry though.

I cygchecked on a CopSSH install. Appearantly, it does not install/update a
package database.

You come exactly to my point. The only reason I have tried al those packages
(OpenSSH on Windows, CopSSH and sec cygwin) is they all give me no relieve.
Sure enough, at first I always deinstalled previous cygwins, before
installing new ones, up till the point I tried updating CopSSH with a cygwin
install (did I just hear a 'yuck!' in the background?).
I'll be very clear on this: I'm *not* seeking support for any other package
than cygwin! I'm seeking support to just get cygwin running.
Therefore, to conclude, I have wiped out the CopSSH and tried a fresh cygwin
install (did I mention I have tried that already multiple times? :) ). The
cygcheck attached is from that one.
Now, my problem, as it did the previous n times, persists: I cannot get any
cygwin tool to generate output. I *can* get all apps to run within strace.
Hell, I can even work my way through almost the whole ssh-host-config this
way! But sadly, nothing runs on my cmd.exe, not even bash.
