  Ah, now there's a question that's entirely on-topic for the list!  The
standard instructions for any cygwin package are in
/usr/share/doc/<packagename>; but these are just the standard docs that come
with whichever package it is, and there are notes specific to the Cygwin port
of any given package in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/<packagename>.README.

  So the "standard instructions" is to read
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README, and to follow the step-by-step
instructions found there (which more-or-less amounts to "Run the
ssh-host-config script and let it take care of everything for you").  I think
the "Important note for Windows 2003 Server users" right near the start might
be relevant to your problem.

    cheers,
      DaveK
