    Corinna,

    Thanks for the response.  I should have realized cygrunsrv was designed
for Cygwin apps; it's stated clearly enough in the source.  It's just that
Cygwin's such a great app (thanks to you all), that I want to use it for
everything.

    If I'm brave enough to plunge into the source, the force option you're
thinking about, are you talking about sending a kill to the cygrunsrv
process that's running java.exe or the java.exe process itself (either way
works)?  BCNU//jle

Java.exe is not a Cygwin application, right?  So it doesn't understand
the Cygwin signal mechanism.  Cygrunsrv is created to support Cygwin
applications so only the signals are sent to the service application
to stop it.  If the application doesn't stop, cygrunsrv doesn't stop
as well.

We could perhaps add a `force' option for killing the application
as in kill.exe.  Patches gratefully accepted.

Corinna
