Thanks for pointing out that wonderful piece of software.
I installed DenyHosts

How can I start denyhosts without logging on to the machine ( logon to
windows ) and open a Cygwin bash and start denyhosts by hand?
I tried the following:
cygrunsrv -I Denyhosts -d "CygWin Denyhosts" -p
/usr/share/denyhosts/denyhosts_start.sh

Almost right, you don't need a script, you just need the correct
parameters for cygrunsrv and DenyHosts:
# Remove what you did, and stop it if started by hand:
cygrunsrv --stop Denyhosts
or
killall python
cygrunsrv --remove Denyhosts
# Install the service:
cygrunsrv -I DenyHosts -p /usr/share/denyhosts/daemon-control -a start \
-d DenyHosts -f "DenyHosts 2.6" -y sshd -x /var/run/denyhosts.pid -o
# Start it (it will start on reboot):
cygrunsrv -S DenyHosts
# Check if everything went right:
cygrunsrv -Q DenyHosts
Adjust any of the parameters if needed.
