I changed the LogLevel to DEBUG in /etc/sshd_config, and I was able to
see helpful information in the event log after restarting the ssh
service.  Also, CopSSH, which uses Cygwin, sets some parameters for
stderr and stdout that I forget, in the ssh service key in the
registry.  I've since deleted the VM and given up on Cygwin's SSH, but
it's pretty simple to install / uninstall CopSSH and try to copy those
registry settings.

When i had incorrect permissions in /var/empty, i got errors in the event viewer and /var/log/sshd.log, so i am think logging is working, but i am not sure its reading /etc/sshd_config.
