On the desktop, I also get a response of "1". > I see that the command > $ cd /home > $ ls -n /home/tbaker TBaker > does _not_ work on the netbook, though I guess this will not be an issue > if the /etc/passwd on the netbook already uses "tbaker"? But on the desktop, I was able to make a link under /home: dr-xr-xr-x+ 1 tbaker None 0 2010-02-24 17:53 Administrator lrwxrwxrwx 1 tbaker None 12 2010-02-23 18:07 TBaker -> /home/tbaker dr-xr-xr-x+ 1 tbaker None 0 2010-02-24 17:53 tbaker That seems inconsistent, but I guess the changed /etc/passwd entry on the desktop has solved the problem, so I will not worry about this. Please let me know if I can make any further tests for you. Has my case been at all instructive for you developers? Anyway, keep up the great work - cygwin is fantastic.
