Using usernames and permissions from Windows domain accounts

Hi How can you set up cygwin so that Windows domain usernames are being used, rather than what I have now, which is, at the cygwin prompt: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> Note that people are logging into the machine as a domain user, but as that domain user they are administrator on their local machine. Th

loading DLLs created with Cygwin into Sun JDK

I'm having a problem getting DLLs compiled with Cygwin to load into Sun JDK 1.4.1. In the past this has worked, so I hope this is fixable without too much work. Here's an example. Take a simple Java Native Interface method like this: $ cat jniTest.c void Java_Test_test () { printf ("test\n");

Myk, I assume you are using Openssh? If you installed Openssh as a Windows service then SYSTEM is the owner of the files, otherwise the owner is whatever user did the installation. This is, of course, assuming that you used the ssh-host-config script in /bin. However, I have installed it both w
