Cygserver is a program which is designed to run as a background service. It provides Cygwin applications with services which require security arbitration or which need to persist while no other Cygwin application is running.
To do the initial configuration and startup do the following:
$ cygserver-config
Warning: The following function requires administrator privileges!
Do you want to install cygserver as service?
(Say "no" if it's already installed as service) (yes/no) yes
The service has been installed under LocalSystem account.
To start it, call `net start cygserver' or `cygrunsrv --start cygserver'.
Further configuration options are available by editing the configuration
file /etc/cygserver.conf. Please read the inline information in that
file carefully. The best option for the start is to just leave it alone.
Basic Cygserver configuration finished. Have fun!
$ cygrunsrv --start cygserver
