The portmap starts fine, but the nfsd and the mountd give this error: cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062: The service has not been started. I run these commands but the problem still exists. chmod 755 /usr/sbin/* /usr/bin/* eval "`mount -m | sed 's/ -u / -s /'`" I don't know what happened with the XP or the Cygwin, I used the nfsd and mountd without problems earlier.
