Unable to start service 'cygwin sshd' on windows 2008 server to setup SFTP

I am setting up SFTP on a windows 2008 server. After installation am not able to start the service. when i open shell command prompt and type "net start sshd" results is as below:
The CYGWIN sshd service is starting.
The CYGWIN sshd service could not be started.
The service did not report an error.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.

when try to start from services.msc it says :
CYGWIN sshd service on local machine started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically, if they are not in use by other services or programmes"

In service properties changed the logon option to local machine but no luck.

Kindly help to resolve this issue.
