Hi, this is my issue: I start up cygwin and do pwd, and this is my home directory. $ pwd /cygdrive/h
But, I don't want it to be in /cygdrive/h. So, what gives? I've run the mkpasswd command like so (while in my /home/<my name> directory): mkpasswd -l -p "$(cygpath -H)" > /etc/passwd At that point, I close my cygwin window and open it again... and same thing when I run pwd. How do I make cygwin think and start in /home/<my name>? I've even mucked with the /etc/passwd for my user account and STILL no result. Very confused... P.S.: If this message shows up twice, I didn't mean to, was having a difficult time trying to post to the mailing list. -- View this message in context: http://cygwin.1069669.n5.nabble.com/How-do-I-change-the-default-home-directory-after-I-fire-up-cygwin-tp95558.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
