You don't even need keychain but of course you do need sshd running with enough privileges to create processes under other accounts. This is most easily done by running the sshd configuration script (/usr/bin/ssh-host-config) from an administrative login and allowing it to install sshd as an NT service. However, this opens up more potential avenues for your system to be accessed over the 'Net and you should consider using the ListenAddress directive to limit access to localhost. There's also a slight security risk just having any Cygwin process running with enhanced privileges.
