How do I "let" SYSTEM run cygrunsrv?  I think that may be the way it's
working now, but I ran ssh-host-config as a user and didn't tell it
anything special.   Can I login as SYSTEM to do the ssh-host-config, or 
is there some way to tell it to run the service as SYSTEM?

Just for testing, I added to "Create a token object" for the user who
invoked cygrunsrv.  That didn't make any difference either.

I do have a /etc/group file created with "mkgroup -l"  and a /etc/passwd 
file created with "mkpasswd -l"  - how can I tell if it is "OK"?

Thanks again,
