After reinstalling cygwin from scratch on computer A, I simply used tar 
-p to transfer $HOME/.ssh/* and /etc/ssh* (with their privileges) from 
the old installation to the new.  However, I can no no longer ssh from A 
to computer B, though I can still ssh from B to A. The error message is 
"connect to host xxx port 22: Connection refused". I have verified that 
sshd is running and has firewall privileges on B.

Was my approach oversimplified?  Must I start again from the beginning 
to set up ssh?
