You have not provided enough information for anyone to help you. Please read and follow the instructions at > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Moreover, if I understand your question correctly, it does not follow at all from the guess I offered and the question I asked above: when you run your code (the program that you provided a snippet of, not the cygserver daemon), does the environment variable CYGWIN contain the word "server" in it, as mentioned in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/cygserver.README? FYI, following the instructions above would have provided us with the output of a tool (cygcheck) that would have answered my question.
