I tried tracing what happens with sshd when a connection occurs but I didn't learn much. The uid/gid authentication uses compat mode on the system where I see this problem. It seems as if the authentication setup is passed across the fork as I don't see any access to /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow (password authentication is being used in this case). Dave -- J.
