Perhaps it's caused by SP2 putting tighter default ACLs on pipes than earlier versions did? There are various tools that can let you examine ACLs on devices and other objects, for instance ProcExp from sysinternals (http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml). It might be informative to compare the ACLs on the pipe on a hung session with the ACLs on the pipe on a working session. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
