    I followed your advice and found it very helpful. However (on
    WinXPProSP1) I needed another command which is not mentioned on the
    webpage http://tech.erdelynet.com/cygwin-sshd.html :
    I must issue
    cygrunsrv -I sshd -p /usr/sbin/sshd
    before the command (item 8)
    cygrunsrv -S sshd

    Hope that helps
