I'm having trouble one step before you

Hi guys, sorry if my spelling is not the best, but english is not my mother tongue.

This is my first experience with Linux. I have Windows server 2003 enterprise x64, sith SP 2 in english, and I have to setup a SFTP, that authenticates with a public password. I choose to use OpenSSH which i think it is the best option fot SFTP with a public key authentication.

I have tried to follow some pages, like... Setting up a SFTP Server on Windows but I can get it running.

Im going to describe what i did, step by step, as best as posible, hopping that somebody can tell me where my mistake is.

1.- Downloaded a zip file from here: Setting up a SFTP Server on Windows

2.- I tried to follow this guide: http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~smp/projects/ssh-windows/, and i made it till the point where it says:

HTML Code:

 <q>
     Assign the server users account (sshd) the appropriate rights:
           ntrights +r SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege -u sshd
</q>

When I type the ntrights, the comand line shows:

HTML Code:

<q>
'ntrights' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
</q>

And after that i haven�t been able to move on.

Can somebody help me please... thanks
