Thank You all for you help so far.

This is what my current mount points looks like:
 Device              Directory           Type         Flags
c:\cygwin\bin       /usr/bin            system       binmode
c:\cygwin\lib       /usr/lib            system       binmode
c:\cygwin           /                   system       binmode

And I still have the same problem. When I try to telnet to localhost I get a 'Connection to host lost'. When I stop inetd and run in.telnetd -debug, then telnet to localhost I get the following out put (plus a stackdump).

      0 [main] in.telnetd 1000 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
  11555 [main] in.telnetd 1000 stackdump: Dumping stack trace to in.telnetd.exe.stackdump

So I'm still lost....Any other suggestions? I've also tried this with all mount being textmode mounts with the same results.

That's enough. If inetd is started under LocalSystem account,
you _must_ use system mounts. If you can see user mounts, you have
a problem. The user mounts are in the registry found under
HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT/Software/Cygnus Solutions/... and you'll have
to delete them with regtool or RegEdit.

BUT: You _must_ at least create the system root mount first.

I have written that system mount points have to be created
already in the inetutils-1.3.2.README file. which is part
of the package. In versions up to 1.3.2-3, the README is in the
root directory, since 1.3.2-4 you can find it in /usr/doc/Cygwin.

Moreover that problem was already talked about in this mailing list.
