Sorry, I thought when you started it manually you just typed:

prompt>sshd

So you are starting the service manually:

prompt>cygrunsrv sshd

and it works, but starting the service automatically fails? That sounds 
like a problem with whatever version of XP you have, or something about 
the parameters that XP starts the service with. Have you tried to 
uninstall sshd as a service, and install it with srvany or firedaemon? 
It may be worth a try, to narrow down the problem to just being how XP 
is starting the service (and rule out cygrunsrv).

HTH,
Peter

Your mouse has moved.
Windows NT must be restarted for the change to take effect.
Reboot now?  [OK]
