What does that command do? I ran it attempting to solve what appeared to be
the problem described in this thread, but it didn't resolve the error. How

I followed the instructions at 
http://www.scottmurphy.info/open-ssh-server-sshd-cygwin-windows
<http://www.scottmurphy.info/open-ssh-server-sshd-cygwin-windows>   to set
up sshd on windows via cygin.
