Forwarding multiple copies of the same message to this list will not gain you
any friends on this list.
I suggest you look at the email archives for issues with 'sshd' installations.
Most of them result from bad configuration, as is the case with yours (*never*
run 'sshd' directly from the command line as a user other than the one that
runs it as a service).
I also recommend two other things:
1. Read the Users Guide for information about switching users. I highly
recommend you implement the LSA package option.

2. To quickly recover from the hole you're in, wipe your Cygwin installation
and start over, using the configuration scripts (ssh-host-config,
ssh-user-config)
at your disposal and your new found knowledge from the Users Guide, email
archives, and even the README.
