Ok I managed to move a bit farther but am really stuck.  I totally
turned of UAC (not sure if this helps, and made the following
modifications to these files:
hosts.allow
sshd : ALL : allow

hosts.deny
ALL:ALL EXCEPT localhost:deny

When I do a
ssh -vvv 127.0.0.1

I am consistently getting a hang on this line:
debug1: identity file /home/klal/.ssh/id_rsa type 1

And then I receive a Microsoft Windows pop up box stating that sh.exe
has ended and has closed.  This popup box will repeat until I use
cntl-c to break the ssh login.  Seems like cygwin, sshd, and Vista
might not be ready for prime-time!
