Hi Carson...

If it is possible, I would like to see

Authorder2 publickey,publickey:password

do the "right thing" in the CygWin environment. Meaning (in my view of the 
world) that if the sshd user-id and the ssh user-id match, publickey 
authentication is performed. If the sshd user-id and the ssh user-id are 
different then publickey:password is performed. This requires knowing that 
the publickey succeeded, but we declared failure because of the user-id 
mismatch. It also requires remembering the longest successful prefix before 
starting a new authentication sequence.

Thanks,

...Karl
