Every time I update the cygwin package, I get a warning that in-use files have been replaced and that I should reboot. I assume this is caused by a Cygwin service, although at one point somebody on this list (I think it was Corinna) said that SETUP stops these services automatically. So I'm assuming my situation isn't normal. I can see the following Cygwin programs running at all times (this is the way ps -W presents them): /usr/sbin/inetd (two instances) /usr/sbin/xinetd /bin/cygrunsrv c:/cygwin/bin/init.exe I've been working around this by carefully updating only the base cygwin package and rebooting before updating the rest. Whenever I forget to do this, post-install scripts generally fail and I have to clean up by running them manually, etc. But I'm wondering: if SETUP is supposed to be able to stop these services, what's going wrong? I may have something configured in the wrong way or be running a daemon that I really don't want to be running. I'm not intentionally running anything other than whatever Cygwin set up, although I had run some network services in the past to experiment with their clients. I'm thinking I should clean this up since I may be exposing some unwanted ports or creating other security problems. Does anyone have suggestions about things I should do to bring my installation "back in line" with normal installs? My cygcheck.out is attached. gsw
