CygWin SSH config:

- Execute command: "ssh-host-config" (answer yes to privileges, confirm to create a new account e.g. sshd, install cygwin as a service (daemon: ntsec)).
--> new NT service available cyg_server
- Start CygWin service (services.msc)
- Open Cygwin64 Terminal (shortcut on desktop) -> run as administrator
ssh –v localhost
ssh -v <hostname> --> required to create a valid host file
The logged in user only able to use ssh sessions currently.
To allow all users of the system to connect and sync windows accounts and groups with ssh execute:
mkpasswd --local > /etc/passwd

To test if the user is able to login execute:
ssh -l <username> <hostname>
