I ran the Setup process several times, not sure how this is suppose to
install itself. First I looked at the README in the download directory
and saw something related to McAfee not installed/ or not accessable. So
I deacitvate my Symantec AV. Now I see (last 5 lines of the README log)

2004/02/10 13:50:52 Ending cygwin install

From what I have gathered, CYGWIN is a Linux Emulation application that
allows you to use Linux like commands, specifically SSHd.

I am very interested in getting a SSH server (freeware) for a Win2k box
we have, however don't quite understand how we install/access the Cygwin
emulator that in turn (in my understanding) would be responsible for
running the SSH server.

Please advise.

Sincerely and TIA,

Mark Kaylor
