Need help Inetd config head ache


To any one who can help & as soon as possible-

Heres the problem enjoy-
There are two machines running cygwin under Win200(Pro) on a 100Mbit Lan
network.
I want to be able to telnet & ssh between this machines.

I have run the 2.194.2.24 setup file and install the inetd utils and the ssh
components.
They install with out an error.

I have set the environment var ntsec and added c:\cygwin\bin to the path of
both machines.
I have run iu-config & /usr/sbin/inted.exe --install-as-service

On reboot I opened two windows of Cygwin to telnet to the localhost eg
telnet horan,
it responded with connection refused.  If in the second windows I run
/usr/sbin/inetd.exe -d (debug mode)
then try the same command it makes the connection an asks for the password-
Here in is the problem 
no matter what password is entered it is rejected, and why do I have to run
inetd in debug mode for it to work.

The same occurs is you try to telnet to the other host so it must be
something in the setup somewhere.
(I currently have access to VNC to view what the other host is doing an put
in debug mode).

I have look at the doc files, web sites and mailing list etc and had no luck
fixing the problem.  I have
even tried removing the ntsec var because the network is secure using use
cygwin security but still no luck.

If you can help it would be great,

Peter
