I'm taking the risk of conflating several different

useful synthesis to help us bottom out on "fork

I've been trying to figure out strace incantations.

Well, we can't diagnose your config because you haven't supplied it.

I could not duplicate this issue with the snapshot binaries 2006-03-13
through 2006-04-27, inclusive.

Your debugging suggestion appears to have worked for me.
Below is what I did in an attempt to assist as requested. I hope this will
be useful for others who may want to help test,

Version 7.6-2 of "tcp_wrappers" is available for
experimental use.
With this package you can monitor and filter incoming
requests for the SYSTAT, FINGER, FTP, TELNET, RLOGIN,
RSH, EXEC, TFTP, TALK, and other network services.
7.6-2:
New maintainer.
Simply moved documents to /usr/share per FHS
I noticed that the docs for the tcp_wrappers package
are not in /usr/share/doc locations. I wrote to the
e-mail address of the maintainer from the README file,
but received a bounce reply.
I'm interested in trying or willing to help to update
the package to put the documents in the more

I used this:

Usage: /bin/chroot NEWROOT [COMMAND...]
or: /bin/chroot OPTION
Run COMMAND with root directory set to NEWROOT.

I tried removing the service using cygrunsrv, then installing the service

wtf didn't have this one.
wtf includes a version of OLOCA from 2003. I downloaded the source package

log entries from sshd a
