> http://pastebin.com/ First thanks to Will for following up (I very much agree with much of what you wrote), and thanks to Brian for this new suggestion. So this is my cygcheck.out: http://pastebin.com/m4c045ea9 This is on a differnt host than previously, a laptop on which I installed Cygwin 'for all', in which I have the CYGWIN environment variable set in the system environment to use both ntsec and smbntsec, with my same home directory from a network drive. I have seeded the /etc/[passwd|group] files with the respective commands and the -l -d options, with the following quirk: my mkpasswd process has been running over the week-end, and I have been refreshing passwd by taking copies of the current status, and adding a line for my own account. Funny: the timestamp doesn't change, and marks the creation time of the file, although it has been updated recently. Here is the symptom about which I hope to read an explanation: ~> ls -ld . .bashrc drwx------+ 8 Administrators Domain Users 0 Feb 29 13:14 . -rwx------+ 1 emagiro Domain Users 118 Feb 29 13:14 .bashrc ~> chmod go+r .bashrc chmod: changing permissions of `.bashrc': Permission denied ~> id uid=654351(emagiro) gid=10545(Domain Users) groups=544(Administrators),545(Users),552997(DATA-G-AdvancedCopper-R), 507088(DATA-G-AreaVisibileOL0-R),621351(DATA-G-ContractControl-R), 537205(DATA-G-Delivery2UK-R),578809(DATA-G-DFMapplication-R), 537126(DATA-G-DocumentiCEM-R),621450(DATA-G-Formazione-R), 621317(DATA-G-IndustrialEng-R),621462(DATA-G-Inventario-C), 537584(DATA-G-IOM Scanner-R),621308(DATA-G-LabStrumentiMSud-R), 543532(DATA-G-LegacyCCDB-R),621488(DATA-G-MaOPM-R),543162(DATA-G-Metrics-R), 647455(DATA-G-NPC Metriche-R),647192(DATA-G-NPCEngineering-R), 524937(DATA-G-NPIBuildPlan-R), 537114(DATA-G-OpticalDB-R),567649(DATA-G-OpticalNet-R), 621314(DATA-G-Pianif-AltreLinee-R),621354(DATA-G-PlanningControl-R), 638286(DATA-G-PubblicazioneEventi-R),621345(DATA-G-Rep_S52th-R), 621343(DATA-G-Rep_S54-R),490364(DATA-G-Segreteria Centro-R), 537289(DATA-G-Shuttle-R),543277(DATA-G-Sysprovhp-C), 647472(DATA-G-Vista Refresh-R),10513(Domain Users),108690(EEI-AC-trxusers), 156801(EEI-BHusers),149492(EEI-Users),545995(INACC-DEL-MANAGE-C), 12197(INACC-POINTSEC-R),156809(LMI-BHUsers),490152(TEAM-G-AreaWind-R), 490154(TEAM-G-Fastweb-R),552836(TEAM-G-FotonicaShared-C), 490385(TEAM-G-GIG-R),621402(TEAM-G-MAdepANR-R), 490194(TEAM-G-Vodafone&MUX NRO-R),10545(Domain Users) (all on one line which I had to cut to <80 chars to make gmane happy). I fail to get a passwordless ssh session to a unix host, and to start http2--Bad system call, with a log of: [Mon Mar 03 12:01:01 2008] [info] mod_unique_id: using ip addr 159.107.167.27 [Mon Mar 03 12:01:01 2008] [info] Init: Seeding PRNG with 136 bytes of entropy [Mon Mar 03 12:01:02 2008] [info] Init: Generating temporary RSA private keys (512/1024 bits) [Mon Mar 03 12:01:02 2008] [info] Init: Generating temporary DH parameters (512/1024 bits) I guess these may relate to the first problem.
