Yes, sure am I using ntsec, as systemwide Variable and also in cygwin.bat:
1: inetd got no TTY:
$ ps -e
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND
433 1 433 433 1 500 22:33:33 /usr/bin/bash
390 433 390 532 1 500 22:39:19 /usr/local/bin/perl
284 1 284 284 0 500 22:54:14 /usr/bin/bash
528 1 528 528 ? 18 22:55:03 /usr/sbin/inetd
242 528 528 242 ? 18 22:55:15 /usr/sbin/inetd
481 284 481 412 0 500 22:55:21 /usr/bin/ps
2: it is UID 18
3: CYGWIN is:
$ set
[...]
CYGWIN=$'binmode tty ntea ntsec title case_check:strict'
[...]
4: After login with telnet, i'm User SYSTEM, BASH=/bin/sh and
NO CYGWIN at all, login to ftpd fails (failed not before upgrade).
I don't use rsh so i don't know if it is different now.

Hmm, i never turn off ntsec if not trying a new port of some cute software.
