openssh unix dev - Nov 2006 - Issue while Running SSH from a Windows Service

Hi All - 
 
It seems to be an odd scenario. I have a simple ssh command which
establishes connection with a UNIX machine and executes some commands
over there. When I ran the command from command window, I was able to
successfully run them. In reality I wanted the ssh command to be invoked
by a windows 2003 service. I tried to debug the ssh command while
running from a service and I get the below log
 
C:\WINDOWS\system32>ssh -v -i c:\id_rsa -i c:\known_hosts -l stwdadmin
10.14.34.211 "ls -rt /export/stwd/staged/ondemand/sqa/outbound/*.mf |
sed 's/\/export\/stwd\/staged\/ondemand\/sqa\/outbound\///g'>

After the above line, SSH hungs. Not sure where the problem is. I am
currently using SSH 3.8.1p1-1 version. 
 
Your support will be appreciated. !!!
 
 
Thanks!
