No luck, the same error still occurs. However, now that you mention it, 
I did play with cygserver settings while trying to install pgsql a while 
back.

Is there a way to view the privileges to see what I may have broken?

BTW, cygserver was not runnning but starts fine; sshd still won't start, 
though.

Thanks,
Ryan
