Yes, it is 18 :

I subsequently tried installing the inetdtools version from cygwin1.3.1
(1.3.2-11..) onto my 1.3.2 system, and it doesn't solve the problem, so I
think it must be a cygwin interactivity problem because but when I install
1.3.1 over it, it works fine again.. it's very strange, and the problem
persists on all of the machines that we have updated (6 so far). Perhaps I
should completely remove cygwin from the system and try a fresh install
(rather than the upgrade)? Strange
Thanks for your time,
Bruce
