Corinna,
I don't know if this is relevant, but I have to add the "/bin" directory to the cygrunsrv command line in the /bin/cygserver-config file in order to avoid Windows failing to find the 'cygwin1.dll". So, the line I have is:
if ! cygrunsrv -I cygserver -d "CYGWIN cygserver" \ -p /usr/sbin/cygserver -f "Shared memory manager" \ -2 /var/log/cygserver.err -e PATH="/bin:$PATH"
Did you know that cygrunsrv adds /bin to $PATH by itself before trying to run the inferior process for the very reason to find cygwin1.dll?
Adding it explicitely is really unnecessary. Just to be sure, I tried it again on my machine and it works fine.
On a perfect platform, perhaps, but like I said, I really had to add it because without it there a Windows dialog would pop up when I ran cygserver telling me that 'Cygwin1.dll' could not be found. That was also true on my previous installation, and one of the reasons I thought it best to reinstall.
