You are missing (at least) one parameter: cygrunsrv -I inetd -p /usr/sbin/inetd --args "-D" -d "CYGWIN inetd" If you don't tell inetd to run in the foreground it will run as a daemon, which is not what cygrunsrv expects (unless you also use -x). -- René Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
