Yup, I read the discussion on this list back in July (this thread: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-07/msg00609.html) that looked promising for me, but none of the advice there helped unfortunately. A Lou Rayman at http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-10/msg01650.html was having a similar problem on 31 Oct, as well as a Sergey Melnykov at http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-07/msg00630.html, but I didn't see any replies to their messages. CYGWIN is "ntsec tty" My /etc/group looks OK... I made it with mkgroup -l > /etc/group SYSTEM is user and group 18, users are in a group called "Users". I'm using the absolutely bleeding edge of every Cygwin package as of yesterday. Any other hints greatly appreciated. -- Ryan T.
