fortunately, cygwin comes with a kajillion unix packages that make microsoft bearable. and i just got my openssh server up and running, so i can still log in from home or elsewhere. here's how:
first, i followed the steps here to get rid of any old failed-attempt kruft. then, even though i did 'run as administrator' on the cygwin bash startup bat, it still gave me warnings when i ran ssh-host-config and tried to use my windows user for running sshd. so i went back and did all the editrights lines. rerunning ssh-host-config (probably unnecessary) gave no warnings, so i started it up with 'cygrunsrv -S sshd' as suggested here (also used the 'tty ntsec' for CYGWIN, as he suggests). and it Just Works.
