What could be the problem? > Good question. Based on the information you've given so far, there's not much concrete to go on. My WAG is that the path causing the problem is the one to 'cygserver'. You won't see that from services.msc. It's a parameter to 'cygrunsrv.exe'. I'd recommend checking that in the registry or uninstalling and reinstalling to see if that clears up any "typos". If not, then look in the registry and make sure the service is pointing to 'cygserver' and that it can be found. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
