I was just following the README: cygrunsrv -I exim -p /usr/bin/exim -e CYGWIN=ntsec \ -a "-bdf -q15m" -d "Exim Mail Transfer Agent" \ -1 /var/log/exim/cygrunsrv_out.log -2 /var/log/exim/cygrunsrv_err.log Should I no longer use the "-d" option? > As a first step you should make sure that the primary group of SYSTEM > is 544 on your system and not 18 (as it used to be 6 months back). > That's needed to setuid, but I am not exactly sure how it relates to > wsock. I tried the above is still no luck: $ id uid=18(SYSTEM) gid=544(Administrators) groups=544(Administrators) $ ~jt/src/exim-4.12-3/build-CYGWIN-i386/exim -bdf -q15m 2003-02-24 16:35:38 cannot find smtp/tcp service when starting daemon > Can you better explain your setup, i.e. what user are you running exim > under normally, when you debug, when you strace, etc....

Are you asking me specifically? Or, is this a rhetorical question for other Cygwin developers too? Given my experience trying to debug this problem, I guess that I would vote "yes".
