Weird.

I'm starting inetd automatically as well. No problem at all. My root dir
is system/binmode as yours and I'm using the same configuration, W2K and
Cygwin 1.1.3 (oh well, sort of).

AFAIK, 1.1.3 doesn't add a root dir entry to the mount table anymore if
it's missing.

Just a guess: Either your service starts a wrong DLL or you have a root
mount created by an older version of Cygwin in the registry hive for the
user defaults.

So I suggest the following:
- Search for another cygwin1.dll on your system. Erase it.
- Check your registry. If you find a registry key
  HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT/Software/Cygnus Solutions erase it, too.
