You're best bet (I think) is to create the users in Windows, then you
can use 'mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd' and 'mkgroup -l > /etc/group' (from
the cygwin bash shell) to create the passwd and group files needed for
sshd. Alternately, if you're using a domain then you can get the users
and groups from that instead (see 'mkpasswd --help' for the full list of
parameters).
