Well, I'm assuming the program you're trying to launch is created to run as a service/daemon. If it's not, that would be a big part of the problem. If it is, beyond the obvious task of making sure that the environment is correct for the program in question, I can't offer any insights to your problem. Sorry. You may be stuck with a debugging task.

Larry, Thanks for your help. After I add new service in etc/services and inetd.conf, inetd seems trying to launch the service I just added. But it got "Connection closed by foreign host" msg immediately. What I tried to do is launch a perl program. Exceed couldn't do it, that is why I am seeking something to replace exceed inetd which could launch a perl program on windows. Do you know if cygwin inetd can launch a perl program? Thanks again for your help.
