I'm having trouble getting proftpd to run as a service under 2003. I read 
/usr/share/doc/Cyginw/openssh.README. I used ssh-host-config to create an 
account named sshd_server. I have ssh running fine.
If I try to use the same account, I get the error
 Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: win32 error 1062:
 The service has not been started.
Looking in the logs, I have:
 unable to set uid to 18, current uid: 1006
Running /usr/sbin/proftpd from the command line gives me the same error, 
except the current uid is 500.
The system is windows 2003 server. cygwin is 1.5.24.
Any ideas?
-Chris
