Cygwin appeared to install fine, and I started up a Cygwin screen. I then ran > net start sshd, and found the following error: ----------------------- $ net start sshd The service name is invalid More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185 ----------------------- Then ran the following: ----------------------- $ net helpmsg 2185 The service name is invalid EXPLANATION You tried to start a service that is not configured on this system ACTION Check the spelling of the service name or check the configuration for the service using the Services option from Server Manager ---------------------- I did not find 'sshd' in the list of services. Should it have installed sshd? Am I doing something incorrectly?
