sshd in Windows 2003 server

Thanks,
    I actually executed ssh-host-config and chose to create the NT 
service and  both the sshd and sshd_server users. Everything looks 
exactly the same as in my WinXP succesful installation. However, on my 
Win2003, when I run  "cygrunsrv.exe --start sshd", I  always get 
immediately the 1053 error. The cygrunsrv process stays running, but the 
NT service appears for ever as "starting". At the Windows Event Viewer, 
I can only see "The CYGWIN sshd service was successfully sent a start 
control.", but nothing else. No file /var/log/sshd.log is not created. 
Is there anything else I can check?

best regards

Using 'openssh-host-config' is the only documented, supported
approach to setting up a Cygwin openssh server.  If you follow
instructions from other locations, then you need to ask for
assistance at those locations.  The documentation for the Cygwin-specific
openssh setup begins in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README.
