You have two choices: cygrunsrv -I samhain -d "CYGWIN samhain" -p /usr/local/sbin/samhain -a --foreground or see if it creates a .pid file and use cygrunsrv -I samhain -d "CYGWIN samhain" -p /usr/local/sbin/samhain -a -D -x /var/run/samhain.pid where I used "/var/run/samhain.pid" as an example. You'll have to check that all files and directories where the daemon writes or creates files are usable by user SYSTEM which, unless you change it, is the user who will be running the service. -- René Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
