Hi Andrew, I must have cut out the step where I showed this before..
trying to edit for brevity.

is /var/log/sshd.log readable and writable by the SYSTEM account?
-------------------------------
Here's my test process:
Clean install + ssh host config .. then:
$ chmod -R 777 log
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var
$ net start sshd
The CYGWIN sshd service is starting.
The CYGWIN sshd service could not be started.
The service did not report an error.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.
(Ok that didn't work, so import my domain acct that's a local admin)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var
$ mkpasswd.exe -d -u blackberry_svc >> /etc/passwd
(Set up the domain account as the owner of empty)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var
$ chown blackberry_svc empty/
(Also set up the domain account as the service startup account)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var
$ net start sshd
The CYGWIN sshd service is starting.
The CYGWIN sshd service was started successfully.
Presto... why did I need to do that?
