CYGWIN - As admin setup other users SSH for them?

I've got a Windows system setup with SSH in CYGWIN working.

I've used mkpaswd to install the users in /etc/passwd.

As administrator I want to:
1) generate the key pairs for the other users.
2) install the public key in the users $home/.ssh/authorized_keys.
3) deliver the private key to the user along with the rest of the
instructions on how to use it in the provided apps.

With out their passwords I can't login to establish their $home
directory structure, run ssh-keygen, copy the key files.

Thanks.
