Check the sshd_config manpage for LogLevel and/or SyslogFacility. Works the same for GNU/Linux, not cygwin specific.



Where can I find this man page?

man sshd_config


I see two sshd_config config pages, one in \cygwin\etc and one in
\cygwin\etc\defaults\etc. Which one do I need to alter?

/etc is the one to edit. /etc/defaults/etc contains templates that get copied to the proper locations during initial configuration. They will be replaced each time you update.
