You are correct that services cannot be run under ME.

Did you build from source or install it as cygwin package?

I receive the same error when trying to run it under XP when building
from source.  Using the cygwin package it works fine.  I have not yet
had the time to continue to debug why I can't execute from the source
code.

coulduse some further clarification about how to run as a service under ME. Thanks.
