Is there someplace to read about how to setup/start inetd, xinetd, etc?  I
am looking through the archives of cygwin and see various references to
cygrunsrv, running inetd with -d option, etc.  

I have setup inetd on many unix/linux systems.  I have setup xinetd on
several linux systems.  

With cygwin, I have manually run inetd with -d and it works but I don't know
why.  By randomly changing uid's of the services I get more stuff to work -
or not.  I'd like to run inetd - or xinetd preferably - as a service/daemon.
Is there a way to do these things without munging through the cygwin
archives for the last several years?  Thanks
/b
