I'm having trouble getting proftpd to run as a service under 2003.  I read 
/usr/share/doc/Cyginw/openssh.README.  I used ssh-host-config to create an 
account named sshd_server.  I have ssh running fine.

If I try to use the same account, I get the error

   Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus:  win32 error 1062:
   The service has not been started.

Looking in the logs, I have:

   unable to set uid to 18, current uid: 1006

Running /usr/sbin/proftpd from the command line gives me the same error, 
except the current uid is 500.

The system is windows 2003 server.  cygwin is 1.5.24.

Any ideas?
