If you want the sshd server on windows you will need cygwin and a lot of cafeined berberages. sorry, you are going against the M$ bad karma.
If what you want is to have a sftp client at windows, and sshd at Unix, you are asking for shared key autentication scheme.
It can be done with winscp + any sshd.
1- Use putty gen to generate pub - priv keys on the windows Give the private key to winscp.
2- copy the pub key to the $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys on the server for the user you are trying to passwordless login.
3- Voilá!

Just check the shared key ssh autentication on the openssh site.
It is easy.
PD: there are many pitfalls, and chmod 777 is not your friend here, since sshd tries to make sure nobody is doing nasty things.

sftp-server(1M) 					  System Administration Commands					   sftp-server(1M)

NAME

       sftp-server - SFTP server subsystem

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

DESCRIPTION

       sftp-server implements the server side of the SSH File Transfer Protocol as defined in the IETF draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer.

       sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.

       To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

       Subsystem   sftp     /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

       See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.

       There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	Successful completion.

       >0	An error occurred.
