Sorry, I should have emphasized that when I ssh'd in, the password was *manually* entered. Pls see this test case, which also refers to a manually entered ssh password: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-02/msg00002.html >From what Pierre Humblet posted in July: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-07/msg01344.html if the output of 'id -G' at the console differs from what you get in a password authenticated ssh session, then that ssh session will not be granted the appropriate rights. In our case we see 1 *additional* local group when in the ssh session. What's special about that local group is that it contains exactly 1 entry- "administrators". Also, pls note that the user that is "sshing in" is in the "administrators" group, so even though he is not a direct member of this group, 'id -G' reports him as a member in an ssh session, but *not* at a non-ssh (console or RDP, bash session)- hence the mismatch that Pierre warns about. agin, pls see: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-02/msg00002.html --snip -- thanks-much, Tom -- 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/
