I'm not sure anything ends up in the event log.  I highly doubt it does. 
 OTOH, if you specify the -e flag when you set up sshd as a service, 
then sterr goes to stdout which, by default using cygrunsrv, ends up in 
/var/log/sshd

I have the goal of getting sshd to work as a service using the SYSYEM 
acct (or whatever it's called on W2K).  I _will_ get there.
