Has anybody of you tried to install sshd as service from LocalSystem
account started via SRVANY.EXE instead of inetd?

I don't want to draw off the attention from a possible startup
problem via inetd.
However, the usage of sshd from inetd is not recommended as you
may read in the man pages.

On the other hand I would be interested in the result.
