Several:

- Did you add the environment string required (AUTOSSH_NTSERVICE)?
- Did you add a dependency to the network? (not required but it makes=20
sense);
- Did you install the service to run as your account? (OpenSSH refuses=20
to run if the access to the keys is too lax, or if it has no access as=20
in other users don't have access to your keys).

The command line I used for installation is (with obfuscated password of=20
course):

$ cygrunsrv --install autossh --path /usr/bin/autossh --env=20
"AUTOSSH_NTSERVICE=3Dyes" --args "-M 0 -F /etc/autossh/ssh_config.remote=20
rberber AT example DOT com" --user rberber --passwd SECRET -y tcpip

The configuration file, ssh_config.remote has all the options for ssh:

$ cat /etc/autossh/ssh_config.legosoft=20
         Host example.com=20
              AddressFamily inet
BatchMode yes
#BindAddress 127.0.0.1
CheckHostIP no
Compression yes
LocalForward localhost:3333 sunfire:3333
Protocol 2
TCPKeepAlive yes

I found that using other options, like User, IdentityFile,=20
UserKnownHostsFile, and HostName made the whole tunnel fail, I really=20
don't know why, I didn't experiment further.
