I have a very odd situation here on my Win2K3 box.
I have sshd set up, using privilege separation. I can log in as a local
user, but the environment I see is not the same as the environment I see
when I log in on the main desktop.
Ping? Has anyone else seen anything like this?
Is there any other information I could generate that would help debug this?
I know sshd (on Linux, etc.) tries really hard *not* to source any of
the standard setup files like /etc/profile, etc., and quite probably
also forces a standard environment on children it spawns.
Is this what is going on here, too? Somehow the code ignores the system
environment, and just copies some "well-known" subset of its environment
to its children, or something?
