Hello! I just attempted to run the cygserver-config program and instead I received that instead: GCL AT CmdrSkywalker ~ $ /usr/bin/cygserver-config Generating /etc/cygserver.conf file chown: changing ownership of `/etc/cygserver.conf': Permission denied Warning: The following function requires administrator privileges! Do you want to install cygserver as service? (Say "no" if it's already installed as service) (yes/no) yes cygrunsrv: Error installing a service: OpenSCManager: Win32 error 5: Access is denied. Installation of cygserver as service failed. Please check the error messages you got. They might give a clue why it failed. A good start is either you don't have administrator privileges or a missing cygrunsrv binary. Please check for both. GCL AT CmdrSkywalker ~ $ I happen to have both. Cygwin was installed using the defaults on this laptop who is running Windows Seven and this is the latest of the 1.7 installers. Anything else? Please feel free to ask. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg DOT drwho8 AT gmail DOT com "This signature was once found posting rude messages in English in the Moscow subway." -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
