Error when attempting to start inetd

[Michael Grand]

When I attempt to start inetd using "net start inetd" it reports this error: "The service is not responding to the control function". The service is installed, and I can attempt to run it from the services manager but I get this error: "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion". In both cases, inetd does not appear in the processes list, so it is failing somewhere along the line.

I have tried inetutils version 1.3.2-35 and 1.3.2-36 and they both have the same problem. I have also tried completely uninstalling Cygwin and doing a fresh install, but that did not fix the problem, and changing CYGWIN from "ntsec" to "server" did not work either. If I run inetd with debugging enabled, like this: "./inetd -d" it appears to work just fine, except that the Cygwin console closes directly afterwards, and I do not wish to run inetd in debug mode. This problem appears to occur throughout the mailing list, such as here http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-12/msg00312.html however the problem never seems to be resolved.
