Windows Server comes with an OpenSSH server, you just have to enable it. Refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/openssh_overview
Public key auth
I changed the administrators group in the last 2 lines of C:/ProgramData/ssh/sshd_config to Clatsop\CSAdministrator. I am not sure if that's the best group to use but I am in it! And it works for me. I set permissions on the file ssh\administrators_authorized_keys and I copied my public key into it. But there is a glitch in setting up public key authentication. It only accepts files in utf-8 format. This fixes it.
copy administrators_authorized_keys temp Get-Content .\temp | Set-Content -Encoding utf8 .\administrators_authorized_keys del temp Restart-Service sshd
During testing I turned on logging to logs/ using LOCAL0 as the facility and put level to DEBUG. I commented those lines out once I fixed the UTF8 bug.
