I have a fresh install of Cygwin 1.3.22-1 on a PC with Win2K in c:\cygwin.
After the install, when I run the cygwin.bat file using the shortcut that appears on the desktop it does not seem to execute the /etc/profile file and hence does not create the /home/[username] directory. Any suggestions as to what might be happening? I have tried to maually creating the /home/[username] directory, but I have to execute the .bashrc everytime I open a cygwin window. I have been using Cygwin 1.3.10 and hence tried doing a fresh install of 1.3.10 on the same machine and it seems to execute the /etc/profile and hence create a /home/[username] directory when the cygwin.bat file is run the very first time. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
