So ... a) cyg_server *is* in the Administrator group in Windows; and b) I ran the

Oddly, "groups cyg_server" returns "None root" -- cygwin doesn't think it's in
the administrator group.
thanks for your thoughts ... any further suggestions?
The mmc "Event viewer" under the label System should give you more
information about the offending service. If you installed cygwin and
then created the user cyg_server, then you should check if it's
available in /etc/passwd (most probably it's there). Can you start the
process by issuing the command '/usr/sbin/sshd'?
Please don't attempt this if you don't know what you're doing. You
can't start sshd from a normal command line without causing problems
for the service unless you start it from a window that's owned by
cyg_server. If you don't know what I'm talking about and can't
figure it out by looking in the archives and/or googling, then I
recommend you don't try starting 'sshd' directly.
