in thread Trouble installing DBI::Bundle

I'm actually not sure that the problem is in Cygwin, it maybe problem with Net::Daemon itself, or with some module it uses, particularly try to update Sys::Syslog. Also check if Cygwin's syslog.exe works, it should log messages into windows event log. Or, as I already told you, just put off with it, most likely you don't need it. Just install DBI instead of Bundle::DBI.

    Happy to report (on July 5, 2012) that your suggestion fixes the problem for me (on perl 5.10 on Cygwin 1.7.15 on Windows 7): installing Sys::Syslog causes the Net::Daemon to stop complaining about the missing /dev/log and it, too, installs successfully. It might help to make Net::Daemon's installer suggest installation of Sys::Syslog.
