Have you setup the ssh server on your local computer by running
"ssh-host-config" as an admin user? If so, is the sshd service running?
The first thing to get working is the ssh server. Make sure you can do
"ssh localhost" from your Cygwin computer. If that works, then there is
some firewall blocking the connection. If that doesn't, look at
/var/log/sshd.log to see why the sshd service didn't start.
