Oops indeed. Since the messages weren't in the same thread, I fired off
the previous reply before seeing this. Turns out I was wrong in my guess.
Is /etc readable to the SYSTEM user? Is /etc/services (or, rather, the
file it's pointing to) readable? In fact, is / readable (the new versions
of Cygwin have traverse checking turned on, so if a directory isn't
readable or executable, none of the entries underneath it can be
accessed).
Igor
P.S. FYI, you didn't attach your cygcheck output, but included it inline.
