I wasn't getting anywhere trying to get sshd to log to /var/log/sshd.log I googled, read the man pages, even the faq but while sshd is working great, I couldn't get it to log.
I found http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-11/msg00136.html by using site:cygwin.com in my google search which told me a bit about the puzzle but I couldn't get it to work. Then I found: http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2001/msg00058.html which helped me a bunch with figuring out how to use cygrunsrv. The example Corinna gave, cygrunsrv -I "Joey sshd" -p /usr/sbin/sshd -a '-d' -u joey made me realize that I needed single quotes after the -a . So.... Trying, cygrunsrv -I sshd -d "CYGWIN sshd" -p /usr/sbin/sshd -a '-D -e' made my day. My thanks to Corinna and Brian.
