Hi all,
I'm just learning how to do this, so please forgive me if I've missed something obvious. I'm in the process of installing Cygwin on a Windows 8.1 machine with the Inetutils package installed. My goal is to get Xinetd working properly so that I can define some other services with it. I've used the following command to attempt to install it since by default /etc/xinetd.conf is not there; do I need to create it?
Cygrunsrv -I xinetd -d "Cygwin xinetd" -p /usr/sbin/xinetd
This command results in:
"interactive is only allowed with install."
What am I missing here? The same thing happens when I attempt to install Inetd. Thanks all for any feedback. all is welcome.
