Did you read my previous reply? Do *not* use the minres lib. Use the Cygwin resolver. There's no minires lib on 64 bit anymore and the 32 bit runtime minres is only maintained for backward compatibility. You can download the latest Cygwin developer snapshot DLL from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ It contains the aforementioned patch. > Now I have an even bigger problem. Sendmail works perfectly.

You might have to read the user's manual in the long run ;) https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#ntsec-setuid-overview Other services are set up so that they use another account called cyg_server. See, for instance, how ssh-host-config helps an admin to set this up. The csih package helper script is lending you a hand when creating such service installer scripts.
