WSL doesn't support services at this time, as far as I know. This is something to discuss in the WSL issue tracker. See: microsoft/WSL#376

But if I run 'sudo service ssh --full-restart' I get the following:

 * Stopping OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd                                           [ OK ]
 * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd   

And then if I open up something like PuTTY and connect to '127.0.0.1', I'm in :P

EDIT: This is on the version of Ubuntu that comes with WSL

Processes can run in the background while your WSL console is open, but will be closed when you close it. At least, that's what happened last time I checked.

In your case the issue is with D-Bus, so try fixing that. As far as I know, it's fixable, but has the same issue of closing once you close the console. Check out the tutorials which install a full desktop environment, since that requires D-Bus too.
