2. Use following commands to create user and group/password creation,
   net user root test at 123 /add
   mkdir \"Documents and Settings"\root\.ssh
   cd \"Documents and Settings"
   cacls root /T /P everyone:F 
   cd \

4. Copy the id_rsa.pub key as authorized_keys2
5. Restart the openssh service.
6. Prompting for password while checking self authentication using 'ssh
root at IPAddress pwd' command.
