Hello folks. A few weeks ago, on Dec 19, I wrote to you all on the cygwin
list "[...] I am able to ssh into those [Debian] boxes from my Cygwin box
without any trouble. But when I try to ssh *into* my Cygwin box, the
connection attempt times out." Etc. So now, I wanted to inform the
community that I am successfully logging-in via ssh to my Cygwin laptop.
The point of failure, as suggested to me in replies, was Windows Firewall.

When the laptop arrived and Windows 10 set itself up, it gave no
information about turning on the firewall (typical Microsoft) and so I had
never given it any thought. When I went to try seeing the settings based on
the advice received, I reluctantly stumbled at first because Windows 10
doesn't have the familiar "Start" button anymore. Instead, it has a
"Search" field which may or may not find internal settings on first
attempts -- instead it may search the Web. Also typical Microsoft. Now that
I know, the steps are:

Settings -> Privacy & security -> Windows Security

I turned the firewall off completely; my only connectivity is at home over
a secure WiFi net. I don't haul this laptop around connecting to strange
WiFi networks.

I hope this helps someone else.
