Please have a look in the mail archives: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Acygwin.com+sshd+service+dependency Your sshd probably needs a dependency on other services; the names aren't obvious to the uninitiated, but need to be up for sshd to start (they are running by the time you start manually). The services required can vary depending on your system configuration. I forget the names, look for "Tcpip", "LanmanWorkstation" or "Browser". More details in the archives.
