I have a suggestion for cygrunsrv. When you add a Service as a user from the Windows services applet, it will automatically grant "Log on as Service" rights to that user. Cygrunsrv does not automagically grant rights, which is probably a good thing, but the error message is not specific, which is a bad thing. When you install the service you get no complaint: $ cygrunsrv.exe -I sshd -d "SSHD" -p /usr/sbin/sshd -a "-D" -u me Enter password of user `HOST\flip': Reenter, please: When you start the service you get $ cygrunsrv.exe -S sshd cygrunsrv.exe: Error starting a service: StartService: Win32 error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure. It would be nice if cygrunsrv complained when you _install_ rather than _start_ the service, if possible. Also, cygrunsrv should precisely specify the source of the problem -- "The given user does not have 'Log on as Service' rights" -- or at least generically suggest that the user investigate the issue.
