Please note that OpenSSH and OpenSSL packages are officially part of the
base distro since 26-9-2000, announced on 27-9-2000:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-09/msg00915.html
The Cygwin setup did downloaded them since that date as well.
I don't understand the problem here. I have described the installation
in detail in the README file `/usr/doc/Cygwin/openssh-2.2.0p1.README'.
For the beginning it will be helpful to start the script
`/usr/bin/ssh-config' which creates the necessary configuration and
key files.
Both files were already part of the original distribution on
ftp.franken.de and their existence was announced more than once in
this forum.

Don't use Windows paths. Your description is ok if the installation
root is C:\ but this is not the default installation. Your description
would be valid in all environments when using POSIX paths like

This is correct behaviour.
As it's even mentioned in the ssh-keygen man pages the host key must
have an empty passphrase.

Where did you get the uid/gid? They are not related to the id's which
are given by NT. So you didn't use mkpasswd/mkgroup for creating your
/etc/passwd and /etc/group files. It's called by the Cygwin setup in
the postinstall. If you didn't use setup.exe, call them by yourself.

I already answered your question yesterday:
