OpenSSHd + Cygwin on Windows XP

Found a good HOWTO-style article on how to set up OpenSSH to run as a daemon under Cygwin for Windows
http://pigtail.net/LRP/printsrv/cygwin-sshd.html
The quick outline is:
Install Cygwin, make sure you include the OpenSSH package since it's not included in the default install
Run '# mkdir -p /home/$username' and then edit /etc/passwd accordingly to create a sane home directory structure
Run '# ssh-host-config' to generate host keys, add an 'sshd' privsep user, and install sshd as a service
Run '# sc query sshd' to verify that the service is running
Run '# ssh-user-config' as necessary to generate private/public SSH keys for users if desired
