Corinna,
Last week I updated openssh to 5.7p1-1, just to realize that I cannot connect
anymore. Reverting to 5.6p1-2 solved the issue.
Saturday I updated to 5.8p1-1 finding the same failure to connect as with
5.7p1-1. Unfortunately 5.6p1-2 is not among the setup choices anymore.
How can I get openssh 5.6p1-2 back?
If you're only interested in how to get back to 5.6, you could try the
"Cygwin Time Machine". Google for it. You might also have it locally
in your download directory. You could point 'setup.exe' there and install
from it instead of the network mirror.
But, of course, it would be more helpful in the long run if you would
try to track down the problem. I'm using 5.7p1 and 5.8p1 without any
problems, as client as well as server. If you go back to 5.6p1, you
switch off yourself from further development. If there's some bug or
incompatibility in your setup, you will never find it. If there's a bug
in OpenSSH, it might never be found either.

Trying some of the more recent revisions listed on the "Cygwin Time Machine".
e.g. ftp://www.fruitbat.org/pub/cygwin/circa/2011/01/11/194023
All give me "Unable to get ...setup.bz2.sig" and
then "Unable to get ...setup.ini.sig".
What gives?
That's a question for the Cygwin Time Machine site. Despite the fact
that it uses the name "Cygwin", that site and service is not supported
by this list.
