Well, still doesn't work. That's what I did: First, I checked normal windows permissions - SYSTEM has all rights to c:\cygwin dir and subdirs, inherited from permissions to whole drive. Next, I checked 'linux' permissions displayed by 'ls -al', and changed them to 755, since user 'Marcin' owns both files. However, I still get the same message when I try to run the service. The printout from cygcheck /usr/sbin/xinetd.exe shows only these two files listed + some files in System32 dir.
