Don't think Nagios can be fully built on Cygwin. I still have one compile error related to ICMP include files. Basically, Cygwin doesn't have a valid ICMP port and icmp.h file is empty. Other than that, I got it to build and run thanks to all the related discussions out there.

* Install "Admin/cron"
* Install "Admin/cygrunsrv"
* Install "Editors/vim"
* Start Cron as a service
For *Non* Windows 2003 Servers
$ cron-config
Cron is already installed as a service under account NAUser-Name.
Do you want to remove or reinstall it? (yes/no) yes
OK. The cron service was removed.
Do you want to install the cron daemon as a service? (yes/no) yes
Enter the value of CYGWIN for the daemon: [ntsec smbntsec] ntsec
The service can run either as yourself or under a privileged account.
Running as yourself allows better access to network drives,
but does not allow to run the crontab of other users.
Do you want to the cron daemon to run as yourself? (yes/no) yes
Please enter the password for user 'User-Name':
Reenter:
*******************************************************************
* Warning: User mode mounts detected. This will likely cause *
* the service to fail to start. You must have system mode mounts *
* in order to run services. Re-run setup and choose 'All Users' *
* or consult the FAQ for more information. *
*******************************************************************
Running cron_diagnose ...
... no problem found.
Do you want to start the cron daemon as a service now? (yes/no) yes
OK. The cron daemon is now running.
In case of problem, examine the log file for cron,
/var/log/cron.log, and the Windows event log (using /usr/bin/cronevents)
for information about the problem cron is having.
Examine also any cron.log file in the HOME directory
(or the file specified in MAILTO) and cron related files in /tmp.
If you cannot fix the problem, then report it to cygwin@cygwin.com.
Please run the script /usr/bin/cronbug and ATTACH its output
(the file cronbug.txt) to your e-mail.
For Windows 2003 Server
* Add a user called cron_server to run cron service
$ net user cron_server passwd /add /active:yes /fullname:"Cron Server" /comment:"Cygwin Cron Server"
* Add user cron_server to Administrators group
$ net localgroup Administrators cron_server /add
* Modify user cron_server rights
$ editrights -a SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege -u cron_server
$ editrights -a SeCreateTokenPrivilege -u cron_server
$ editrights -a SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege -u cron_server
$ editrights -a SeServiceLogonRight -u cron_server
$ editrights -a SeDenyInteractiveLogonRight -u cron_server
$ editrights -a SeDenyNetworkLogonRight -u cron_server
$ editrights -a SeDenyRemoteInteractiveLogonRight -u cron_server

Install Cygwin/X and OpenSSH
* Download Cygwin setup.exe from cygwin.com. There is no difference between "Install Cygwin Now" and "Install Cygwin/X Now" buttons.
* Move setup.exe to a local folder where you would also like to store downloaded Cygwin files, e.g. c:\download\cygwin.
* Double click setup.exe to startup download and installation.
- Choose Install from internet
- Set root directory, e.g. c:\cygwin.
- Accept Local Package Directory, e.g. c:\download\cygwin.
- Choose Direct Connection if you're directly connected to the internet.
- Choose download site, e.g. ftp://ftp.gtlib.gatech.edu.
- Select to install the whole X11 category at the bottom of the package list by clicking the two-arrow symbol until text after it changes to "install".
- Click the "View" button so all the packages are listed alphabetically.
- Find "openssh" package. Click the double-arrow symbol until the text after it changes to install or package version numbers.
- Click Next and wait for the selected packages (Cygwin, X11 and openssh) to be downloaded and installed.
- Click Finish when done.
Start Cygwin/X SSH Session
* Click Cygwin shortcut to bring up the Cygwin window.
* Type "startx" to bring up the Cygwin/X window (Cygwin/X:0.0).
* In one of the xterm, type
ssh -Y -l username remote_hostname_or_ip_address
* Remote X windows such as Java GUI can now be shown on Cygwin/X.
