But that is described in inetutils-1.3.2.README. Anyway, if you
use LocalSystem for your service, all user rights are implicitely
given.

Aaaarg! Don't do this! Add the path to cygwin1.dll to the PATH

As it's described in the documentation: Never ever use two cygwin1.dlls
on the same box parallel! Dubious side-effects may occur!
