The error it gives me when I try to start the service, after using the ssh-host-config command to make the service, and using the cygrunsrv -S sshd command is: cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062: The service has not been started. I am not sure if this will help at all, but I figured it might.
