I couldn't find any hint in the manual. Is it possible to run (and automatically start) XWin as windows service? I tried these attempts, but they don't work: sc create testabc1 binpath= "D:\Programme\cygwin\bin\startxwin.exe -- /bin/XWin -clipboard -emulate3buttons 100 -nounixkill -nowinkill -xkboptions nbsp:level3" displayname= "testabc1" start= demand sc create testabc2 binpath= "D:\Programme\cygwin\bin\XWin.exe -clipboard -emulate3buttons 100 -nounixkill -nowinkill -xkboptions nbsp:level3" displayname= "testabc2" start= demand ... they all come with the same error message on startup: sc start testabc2 [SC] StartService FEHLER 1053: Der Dienst antwortete nicht rechtzeitig auf die Start- oder Steuerungsanforderung. Thank you very much for ideas!
