How about in /var/log/sshd*.log? I don't know how to read the Event log. If you care to explain how, I will gladly do it. In /var/log all of my files are empty. That is they have 0 bytes. > Is the NT user account you used set up with the necessary "special > user rights" needed by ssh? See /user/doc/Cygwin/openssh*.README. Yes it is. I also detailed step by step how I installed ssh/sshd in the post: Corrected: How I got ssh to work, and sshd to work from the command line on NT I have had a consistent problem trying to use any unix style programs on windows. I don't know the unix utilities very well, and so whenever I run into an error, I don't know if it is because I have entered something into the command line incorrectly, or whether there is a configuration problem or whether there is a bug in the port to windows. I thought that other people might have the same problem, so I gave a step by step configuration guide to how I got ssh/sshd to work from the command line.
