(Assuming Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/2003) #1. Run /usr/bin/cygserver-config #2. Then you might want to edit /etc/cygserver.conf Where you can set some IPC related maximums. #4. reboot #5. Be certain that the environment variable CYGWIN is set to 'server', do this in any way you wish (your POSIX background should make this simple) before running your companies programs. Good Luck. >> If I knew a way to describe which version of cygwin (.dll?) is installed, > > "cygcheck -svr" output as explained at > http://cygwin.com/problems.html > > Brian > -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
