Hello,
 
We have configured Cygwin on Windows XP. SOmehow we managed to configure the SSH onto cygwin for a user called "mac". We could login to windows XP with the local user name mac and then start the
cygwin. And then /usr/sbin/sshd. Its the only way currently how we get to start the sshd daemon. And we could connect from remote system to this XP system using  "ssh -l mac winxp".
But now the problem is we can not make other users login to this winxp host. Here are few of the details help you understand the environment,
 
$ ls -l /etc/ssh*
-rwxr-x--- 1 mac Kein 1482 Mar 23 13:47 /etc/ssh_config
-rw------- 1 mac Kein  668 Mar 23 13:47 /etc/ssh_host_dsa_key
-rw-r--r-- 1 mac Kein  603 Mar 23 13:47 /etc/ssh_host_dsa_key.pub
-rw------- 1 mac Kein  976 Mar 23 13:47 /etc/ssh_host_key
-rw-r--r-- 1 mac Kein  640 Mar 23 13:47 /etc/ssh_host_key.pub
-rw------- 1 mac Kein 1671 Mar 23 13:47 /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key
-rw-r--r-- 1 mac Kein  395 Mar 23 13:47 /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub
-rw-r--r-- 1 mac Kein 3258 Mar 23 13:48 /etc/sshd_config
 

$ ls -ld /var/empty/
drwxr-xr-x+ 2 mac Kein 0 Mar 23 13:47 /var/empty/
