Did you read the cygwin ssh docs in /usr/docs SSHD is not perfect on cygwin but I managed to get it to work running as a service. Inetd is not recommended as far as I remember.

I did not found answer in latest posts. I used ssh-host-config to set up sshd. I installed sshd as service and used the default "CYGWIN=binmode tty ntsec". While it started perfectly for the first time and was completely usable, the service even refused to stop. I had to kill sshd.exe in task manager. And then it would not work until the next boot. I tried starting sshd from inetd. It was even worse. When I connected to it from a remote box, there was no response at all. And then sshd.exe hung. Stopping the service inetd would not stop sshd.exe. I could not even kill it. I had to reboot the W2k box. I also tried sshd.exe directly from Cygwin Bash. I would see the prompt for password on a remote box when connecting to it, but the password could not be accepted. It always reports "Permission denied". Any help? (Reply to me, please.)
