Sorry, I assumed you were connecting from cygwin to linux and not the
other way.

sshd is running as user SYSTEM and so they are owned by him. Changing the
file permissions may help

chmod go+w /etc/ssh/sshd_config
vi  /etc/ssh/sshd_config
chmod go-w /etc/ssh/sshd_config

But that's only a wild guess
