Try the directions from this web site.
http://tech.erdelynet.com/cygwin-ssh.asp
I'm running it on NT workstation with no problems now, though I did have to
restart from scratch once when I have the same
password problem. Following the instructions as exact as possible helped.

Subject: sshd configuration on windows

I'm trying to install a sshd server from cygnus on a Windows2000 server.
Well... Everythings works ok but authentication does fail.
If someone has experience on this please help me :)

Thanks
Ivan Hernandez
