in the win2k environment, I would consider adding the path to the
Cygwin1.dll to the system path (for example, c:\cygwin\bin)
then, using command prompt shell, not the CYGWIN shell, cd to the folder
containing the ipc-daemon.
From there, type ipc-daemon to run the daemon
or ipc-daemon --install-as-service to install it as a service
