After googeling a while i´m giving up.
Can someone please give me a small HowTo
I installed the most recent version of the cygwin distri.
( Full blown install)
I can do successfully a ssh to my host.
I have done some customizing to have sshd logging to /var/log/sshd.log.
Solved by installing the sshd by this command:
cygrunsrv -I sshd -d "CYGWIN sshd" -p /usr/sbin/sshd -a '-D -e'

I´m not really happy of the log output cause I only see the hostname , IP
and  the used username, but no timestamp.

You went the wrong way in your configuration, or at least the hard way.

Usually you don't need '-e', you just configure syslog. Really easy, with syslog (part of the inetutils package) is a one liner:

auth.*          /var/log/sshd.log

With syslog-ng you have more control but the configuration is longer.

Can some post a decent and small HowTo?

Install the service following /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README; install syslog or syslog-ng, and configure it to use the file you want and (in syslog-ng case) the format you want.
