[ssh-l] Getting sshd to auto-start

Hi,

I have followed all your instructions (yes all, including all the reboots)
for installing sshd as a service and it seems to semi-work for me. (If this
sounds familiar: Yes I have asked the list before but I have not been able
to get any satisfying answer yet :->).

I have made a clean install of W2K and a fresh install of the latest Cygwin.
My disk is nothing but NTFS and I have "ntsec tty" in my environment.

What I have is:

* I can run /usr/sbin/sshd from the command line and test that it works to
localhost and to dalsgaards.dk, also from outside my own network.

* I get the 'Cygwin SSHD' service in the list of Services and it says
"Automatic" but it is not started.

* I can start the service by pressing '|>' (Start) from the list of services
without any complains whatsoever!!

This is very annoying if my system boots for some reason I will not be able
to ssh to it from work as the service does not come up after a restart!

Here is what I get in my Event Viewer (System Log), 2 entries as follows:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Event Category: None

Is it a problem that user is 'N/A'?? Should I use some '-u admin -w joshua'
thing or is this not required?

Thanks for all your input!!
