I am (trying) to use srvany.  I did
    instsrv sshd e:\bin\srvany.exe

Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\sshd
are these settings
    AppDirectory REG_SZ e:\cygwin\tmp
    Application REG_SZ e:\cygwin\usr\sbin\sshd.exe
    AppParameters REG_SZ (blank)
    Description REG_SZ secure shell
    DisplayName REG_SZ sshd
    ErrorControl REG_DWORD 0x01
    ImagePath REG_EXPAND_SZ e:\bin\srvany.exe
    ObjectName REG_SZ .\bbeuning (login name)
    Start REG_DWORD 0x03
    Type REG_DWORD 0x10

Sorry I didn't mention this the first time.

AHAH!  Rereading the directions, I was supposed to make a Parameters
key.  Now sshd as a service starts and remote login works!  Yeah!

Thanks,
Brian Beuning
