BTDT, IIRC too many Linux dependencies.
Still running NTP from Meinberg:

https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/ntp.htm#ntp_stable
https://www.meinbergglobal.com/download/ntp/windows/ntp-4.2.8p15-v2-win32-setup.exe
https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/ntp-server-monitor.htm
https://www.meinbergglobal.com/download/ntp/windows/time-server-monitor/ntp-time-server-monitor-104.exe

You can download the sources and build the daemon and utilities with 
older VS releases, but Meinberg provides a service installer and monitor 
utility.

With serial driver and PPS DLL, service and other setup tweaking, you 
can run a serial GPS with PPS at Realtime priority and get microsecond 
stability.

Thanks Thomas.

In the default 'helmholtz' theme, the separate foreground and
background colour settings are used for blue, red, magenta and grey
(aka "BoldBlack"), with the background variants darker than the
foreground ones. Foreground blue is significantly brighter again than
before, to help readability on a black background. It's still not as
bright as the other colours, because it's also often used on bright
backgrounds, but I think it now looks ok in syntax highlighting
schemes that use it.

The 'kohlrausch' theme is repurposed as a black-on-white version of
'helmholtz', with the foreground colour variants darker than the
background ones. It's probably best used with the "show bold as font"
mode. Note that as the theme contains settings for the default
foreground and background colours, those can't then be changed in the
options dialog. To be able to change them anyway, copy the colour
settings from /usr/share/mintty/themes/kohlrausch into ~/.minttyrc and
remove the ThemeFile setting.

That is not the same as not supporting Cygwin.

[snip]
Taken from chrony's FAQ:

"7.1. Does chrony support Windows?

No. The chronyc program (the command-line client used for configuring 
chronyd while it is running) has been successfully built and run under 
Cygwin in the past. chronyd is not portable, because part of it is very 
system-dependent. It needs adapting to work with Windows' equivalent of 
the adjtimex() call, and it needs to be made to work as a service."


Running as a service is not a problem in Cygwin, there's a helper 
program for that.


I'm not sure about the support for adjtimex()... Its not in any header 
so I guess its not supported.  There is an adjtime() in sys/time.h, but 
that is not the same.

Looks like I should be trying to get NTP running instead of Chrony
for time clock syncing/updating on this Win10 machine.  Bet that will
be fun.


I wouldn't give up, chrony probably works out of the box, it just needs 
to accept that the environment is Linux-like.



Thanks again.


You are welcome.

That message is from chrony, there's no apparent problem with Cygwin. 
The message is just telling you that the OS CYGWIN* is not one known to 
work, or the project being already ported if that is needed.


Perhaps its time to look into configure's options, there may be one to 
(force) build for Linux and, depending on how portable that project is, 
it usually works.


Another detail which is often overlooked, you need to install the 
pre-requisites (listed by the specific project) and its development 
libraries (as in -devel in setup).


Hope this helps.
