In general we frown on sites like the above on this list because they constantly give bad advice. Don't follow any of that rubbish, and if you do, go pester the authors of those sites for help -- don't ask here. The only documentation that you need to setup sshd is "run ssh-host-config". If you need details then read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/*openssh*. If you do this then there is no such need for the user that is connecting to be an administrator.
