Thanks Russell,
cygrunsrv's running
$ cygrunsrv --list
sshd
$ cygrunsrv --query sshd
Service : sshd
Display name : CYGWIN sshd
Current State : Running
Controls Accepted : Stop
Command : /usr/sbin/sshd -D

but port 22.
Check the Windows firewall, as was already suggested (highly suspect, if
you just timeout when trying to connect).
If you try rebuilding what you did under Windows, you're likely going to
want to look at *cygserver* and *cygrunsrv*, and NOT directly at sshd. It's
in /usr/sbin, generally.
Something like:
$ cygrunsrv --list
cygsshd
$ cygrunsrv --query cygsshd
Service : cygsshd
Display name : CYGWIN cygsshd
Current State : Stopped
Command : /usr/sbin/sshd -D
You might also look to the Windows System Utilities / Sysinternals
<https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/> (optional download), and
the "Process Explorer" for more detailed Windows information at the tips of
your fingers. They update every month or two, and are worth keeping
"reasonably up to date." There's a plethora of Windows troubleshooting
tools, and some fun stuff as-well.
Cheers -
Russell

Hi all,
I set up cygwin several years ago and have only had one system at home.
I've
recently got a 2nd, linux.
I've used ssh locally under cygwin, primarily to get a term for a use
with admin
priv. And I can ssh from cygwin to the linux machine. On cygwin I see
$ ps -ef |grep sshd
cyg_serv 255 254 ? Feb 1 /usr/sbin/sshd
But ssh from linux to cygwin hangs (finally times out). Ping works linux
--> windows.
I must have run ssh-host-config way back when. Can I just run it again?
Suggestions for something else to try and/or triage the problem?
You might try the following. Determine the Windows pid of your sshd
process, then
use netstat to see if that process is listening on the sshd port. Here's
what a
successful check looks like:
~ ps -as|grep sshd
42834 ? Jan 16 /usr/sbin/sshd
~ ps -lp 42834
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND
42834 42832 42834 5972 ? 197612 Jan 16
/usr/sbin/sshd
~ netstat -ao|grep 5972
TCP 0.0.0.0:22 zotac:0 LISTENING
5972
TCP [::]:22 zotac:0 LISTENING
5972
If the two output lines aren't there, I'd suspect a Windows firewall has
TCP port
22 walled off. ("zotac" is my machine name; you'll see something
different there.)
HTH,
..mark
