Someone pointed me to something similar, also using the cygwin libraries
(already compiled). I got it working on a test box, but don't feel too
secure deploying it on production machines until some SERIOUS testing is
done.
Do command shells work as expected on the version you compiled? I can get a
shell into a remote system, but some command-line functionality doesn't work
in a remote session: for example, using Win2K's command-line telnet client,
or piping output to more ("dir /s | more" basically gets you the output of
"dir /s").
I'd love to use this, but I'd either need to compile it myself (and I'm no
programmer), or get a working version from a trusted source (preferably one
that supports the software). I can't imagine why no one has written &
marketed a commercial SSH server for NT by now. Any NT administrator with
knowledge of the great tools available to Unix administrators would love to
get his hands on one.
Norton SSH? ;)

.... When I still used NT, I got a version of sshd to compile using cygwin.
The new version of cygwin comes with a compiler, and everything compiled
fine. Getting it to run was might ugly, but it worked. Managed to register
it as a service, and could actually control it as one. Only took me three
days to get it working.
