1.7: cygrunsrv and google desktop search (was: cygrunsrv will not start services most of the time)

I've been tearing my hair out for weeks trying to get sshd running again after it stopped working. Came across this old thread on cygwin discuss from 3/26/09 describing the same problem but no resolution. I finally found a fix, so I'm posting it here for the record in case it helps others. (And pe

Re: cygrunsrv will not start services most of the time

Well, I found the culprit. It seems that Google Desktop was causing the problem, because after I installed it, I had zero problems starting cygrunsrv services. I only have two machines with both Google Desktop and cygrunsrv services. It works fine on the other machine. Oh well, I need an SSHD

cygrunsrv will not start services most of the time

One of the first things I do on a new computer is install cygwin and openssh to get sshd access to it. (setting it up with "ssh-host-config -y"). Unfortunately, I seem to have a problem with cygrunsrv (version 1.34-1). Most of the time (say, 7 out of 10 times), it will not start the service. W
