Hi All,
I've finally had a chance to play some. So, there's nothing like trying
something! In answer to some of my own questions:

You can do that.

Yes, exactly.

No, they're not the objects referred to. Rather, cygrunsrv lets you define
your own NT(+) services. That you might setup cygserver to run as a
service is a separate question.
...OK... So this gets me further along. I guess I was confused by
cygrunsrv being involved with cygserver. -shrug-
