The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* cygrunsrv-1.63-1

Adding two options -T and -X to control timeouts when starting/stopping
the service.  Rearranging the package build system.


Windows provides a set of functions required to be called by applications
supposed to run as a service.  The usual POSIX daemon is not prepared to do
so, so it can't run as a service under Windows.

Cygrunsrv is a Windows service application, acting as a wrapper between
the POSIX daemon and the Windows system.

For usage info, read the file /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/cygrunsrv.README.
