I already started it, and I THINK I found the SSH and turned it on..
the interface was rather slow, I thought it went to sleep on me, I
almost killed it!


Cygwin can interface with the Windows service subsystem so your SSH
server runs automatically upon system start-up without any manual
action on your part. If you're running a server (want to log in
there via SSH), then this is a good choice.

I'll give it a try as soon as it stops installing!


Cygwin has its own mailing list (of course) where you'll find very
much the same kind of spirit of tolerance and forgiveness you've
come to know and love here in the SuSE-Linux-E list!

oooh, I don't know if I'm up to that much more abuse:)
thanks, I'll look around once I get it installed, I'm SURE I'll have
more questions!
