The cygserver one, which is created by the line if ! cygrunsrv -I cygserver -d "CYGWIN cygserver" -p /usr/sbin/cygserver from /usr/bin/cygserver-config would have to be HKLM/SYSTEM/CCS/Services/cygserver ... this would also be consistent with the 'net start' usage info .... echo "To start it, call \`net start cygserver' or \`cygrunsrv -S cygserver'." cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- 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/
