BTW: I've had the funky SSH issues before where nothing at all works. My
solution was pretty much voodoo based:

1. Delete every single ssh, ssh_server, ssh-related user manually. Delete
these users from /etc/passwd as well as the windows side of the things.
2. Delete every dynamically generated ssh file - keys, config, etc.
3. Run ssh-host-config again.

I've gotten cygwin ssh to work on my home network, but after it broke 
for the second time I felt it was just too much hassle to
reinstall.  For me ssh is a convenience, not a necessity.  Would rsh be 
any easier  to maintain?  I would gladly trade security for convenience.
