Hello Igor,
Problem solved, please ignore my last posting.
You were correct. The environment string had not in fact been set up via
cygrunsrv when I installed inetd originally. I tried setting it via the
services dialog in XP and as a global system-wide variable, but I had
forgotten about cygrunsrv -e.
The following install fixed the problem:
cygrunsrv -I inetd -d "CYGWIN inetd" -p /usr/sbin/inetd -a -d -e
CYGWIN=server
cygrunsrv -S inetd
Once again, thank you for your prompt reply and assistance.
Best regards,
John

How is inetd installed as service? Does that service have CYGWIN=server
in its environment?
