I downloaded cygwin and ran ssh-host-config. I'm trying to connect using

ssh -l micah myserver

it then says

micah@myserver's password:

I enter the same password I use to log into windows and it says

Permission Denied, please try again.

After the third try it says:

Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).

What am I doing wrong? Any ideas? Do I need to generate an ssh key on the client and add it somewhere on the server?
