Thanks. I uninstalled sun-rpc, killed cygrunsrv instances, and got back to
a pre-nfs state. I then re-installed nfs-server and sun-rpc. This time
restarting the daemons using the cygrunsrv commands in the README
succeeded, but attempting to mount exported directories seem to hang.
Trying the nfs-server-config script I get:
-------------------------------------------------------
Installing portmap as 'Cygwin portmap'
cygrunsrv: Error installing a service: OpenService: Win32 error 1073:
The specified service already exists.
Installing mountd as 'Cygwin mountd'
Installing nfsd as 'Cygwin nfsd'
mount(1) command did not return SYSTEM mount(s).
It looks like you have installed Cygwin for a single user.
Cygwin mount points will not be available to programs installed
as Windows services. This will keep portmap, mountd, and nfsd
from running as Windows services.
In order for portmap, mountd and nfsd to function properly,
you should establish global mount points using the /bin/mount
utility. You can change user-specific Cygwin mount points to
global mount points using the following command:
eval mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts" "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts";
mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin/bin" "/usr/bin";
mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin/lib" "/usr/lib";
mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin" "/";
mount -f -s -b "a:" "/a";
mount -f -s -b "c:" "/c";
mount -f -s -b "c:" "/exports/c";
mount -f -s -b "d:" "/exports/d";
mount -f -s -b "d:" "/d";
mount -f -s -b -E "p:" "/p";
mount -f -s -b "p:" "/exports/p";
mount -f -s -b -E "q:" "/q";
mount -f -s -b "q:" "/exports/q";
mount -f -s -b -E "s:" "/s";
mount -s -b --change-cygdrive-prefix "/cygdrive";
You current mount -m listing is:
mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts" "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts"
mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin/bin" "/usr/bin"
mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin/lib" "/usr/lib"
mount -f -s -b "C:/cygwin" "/"
mount -f -s -b "a:" "/a"
mount -f -s -b "c:" "/c"
mount -f -s -b "c:" "/exports/c"
mount -f -s -b "d:" "/exports/d"
mount -f -s -b "d:" "/d"
mount -f -s -b -E "p:" "/p"
mount -f -s -b "p:" "/exports/p"
mount -f -s -b -E "q:" "/q"
mount -f -s -b "q:" "/exports/q"
mount -f -s -b -E "s:" "/s"
mount -s -b --change-cygdrive-prefix "/cygdrive"
-------------------------------------------------------
I am confused about this information. I *did* install Cygwin "for
everyone", and it looks like all the mounts are already system mounts,
despite what the script output says. Output of mount:
-------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------
After running nfs-server-config, portmap is started, mountd and nfsd are
not, but they start without error if started using the Windows Services
interface.
