I discovered afterward that this is related to FAQ #14. This Server 2008 is running Terminal Services, and that is the key fact. http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.setup.html#faq.setup.setup-fails-on-ts I'm sorry that faq escaped my attention. I didn't recognize the connection, since I set up Cygwin on a local console, not through Terminal Services; but now the relationship is obvious to me.
