As a final step I rebooted my system (W7, 64 bits, Uising 64-bits Cygwin). I can still connect to the localhost w/ ssh ... But I cannot start and stop the "sshd service" using cygrunsrv. 64-@@ cygrunsrv -E sshd cygrunsrv: Error stopping a service: OpenService: Win32 error 5: Access is denied. 64-@@ cygrunsrv -S sshd cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: OpenService: Win32 error 5: Access is denied. I have to use the "services applet" from Windows in order to start and stop the service.
