Making sftp and ssh work on cygwin


Hello,

I recently downloaded cygwin and I've been trying to make ssh and sftp work with no success. When I run these commands I get these outputs:

$ ssh user@142.268.10.26

$ sftp user@142.268.10.26
Connecting to 142.268.10.26...
Connection closed

With neither of them I am even prompted for the password. I am using Windows XP, and the bash version of cygwin is GNU bash, version 3.1.17(6)-release (i686-pc-cygwin).

I would appreciate if anybody could give me a hint on what I can do to make them work. Or if it may be better to uninstall cygwin and follow some instructions from scratch, that would also be welcome.

Thanks in advance,
