There might be a Cygwin bug here. If I do: # cygrunsrv -I inetd -p C:/cygwin/usr/sbin/inetd.exe -o I indeed see a new service, but the service is Display name: inetd Description: Path to executable: C:\Cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe Startup type: Automatic If I then use regedit to change it to Display name: inetd Description: Path to executable: C:\Cygwin\usr\sbin\inetd.exe Startup type: Automatic I get an error that the service cannot find cygwin1.dll When I copy it to /usr/sbin, all works (though I find multiple warnings in the system application log) C:\Cygwin\bin is in the system environment's PATH (not in the user's environment, so all users get it) Please keep me Cc'd, I'm not subscribed. > Or use sshd, this is in the openssh package, > a little more secure since all transfer is > encrypted. -- H.Merijn Brand Amsterdam Perl Mongers (http://amsterdam.pm.org/) using perl-5.6.1, 5.8.0 & 633 on HP-UX 10.20 & 11.00, AIX 4.2, AIX 4.3, WinNT 4, Win2K pro & WinCE 2.11.
