Installed as service? Running under what user & what Windows version? No messages in the event log (or syslog if you are using it)? Last year there was some report similar to yours: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/62823 but I've heard no comments about experience actually running the server. Dovecot is another server that compiles easily, but their Wiki seems to poi= nt to the same problem with advisory locking under Cygwin. As you can see, there are a few of us interested in this subject but, as yo= u say, there isn't much experience reported. --=20 Ren=E9 Berber -- 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/
