Subject: Re: How to run cygwin sshd as a domain user?

Thank you very much, I can start sshd as my usual domain user after:

1.  chown my_user_name /etc/ssh*
2.  chown my_user_name /var/empty

/usr/sbin/sshd.exe

And now I can get access to the network drives/printers from a remote ssh 
login session. I think the cygwin FAQ didn't mention this subtlety but you 
guys are really very helpful, thank you again!
