Hi Corinna,

Thank you for your quick response. As I am at work now, and my experiments
with sshd at home, I cannot give feedback on your suggestions right now.

With respect to 'hex-edited cygwindll', the url I got the 
files from has been included,as is the readme file that was included. 

http://marvin.criadvantage.com/caspian/Software/SSHD-NT/default.php

 <<README 1st.txt>> 

In case you are interested, I can also send you the complete installation
file, about
472 k in size. Please let me know (unless of course the file is still on the
web).

Kind regards,
Groetjes, Frank
