Yesterday I just did a clean installation of Cygwin 1.7.20-1 and I have experienced exactly the same issue as you - mountd and nfsd don't start (get_myaddress: ioctl: Invalid argument in logs). Portmap starts fine.

I tried to downgrade sunrpc, but that didn't help.

It works! Thanks for your quick reaction.

Another problem occurred. Both services mountd and nfsd start, but after a while they stop.

mountd.log says:
Cannot register service: RPC: Timed out
mountd[8860] 06/14/113 21:57 rpcmisc.c 99 : unable to register (mountd, 1, udp).

And nfsd.log says:
Cannot register service: RPC: Timed out
nfsd[6096] 06/14/113 21:56 rpcmisc.c 99 : unable to register (nfsd, 2, udp).

Windows firewall was temporally disabled when I tested it.

I would like to report that this is still an issue with the latest release of cygwin. (Cgywin1.dll 1.7.25)  I can confirm that the NSFD and MOUNTD services for the nfs server will die within 10 minutes after starting.  When i rolled back to Cygwin1.dll 1.7.18 this problem no longer exists.

Yes, i have the same problem in win7. Could you tell me where to download  Cygwin1.dll 1.7.18 ?  thanks!

I had an old cygwin installation.  Though I believe you can pull some archive installations off old mirrors.  I saw another thread that suggested as much.

Attached cygwin1.dll 1.7.18cygwin1.dll
