Subject:	ipc-daemon doen't start as service on boot on my Windows 2000
	server
Mime-Version:	1.0

If you can, please help.
I made sure that:
- my /bin directory (C:\cygwin\bin) is in your system PATH (e.g. set for the entire system from the My Computer properties) (Chuck msg 9/2001)

- The PATH is set correctly (Kurt msg 9/2001)  Just for kicks i copied cygwin1.dll to C:\WINNT too

- The "Path to executable" in my service properties is listed as:
	C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\ipc-daemon.exe "--service"

- I read /usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.1.3.README carefully

- It works fine with "net start ipc-daemon", just doesn't start without an error on boot.  The error is a timeout error and the follow up error is generic and something like "At least one service failed to start."  In the event log I see the timeout and "the service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."  It also works fine starting it from the service manager manually.

- CYGWIN is a system environment variable set to "binmode tty ntsec" (Gerrit P. Haase msg 7/2001)
- I removed /tmp/MultiFile* and rebooted to no avail.
- PC is a Windows 2000 Server, logging onto
- I turned debugging on (Chuck msg 7/2001) and saw nothing helpful.
- TightSecurity flag is off
- I read all archive messages that came up when "ipc-daemon service" was searched for
- the ipc-daemon service has no dependencies (installed with --install-as-service)

Does anyone have any other suggestions I could try?
thanks.
