Dear cygwin experts,
I went through the mailing list archive searching for
"windows 2003 server" but the resulting 10 pages
didn't really help.
Could anybody please provide a hint to my problem
running cygwin on a Windows 2003 server?
I can only start a cygnus shell when I am a member
of the admin
Larry,
Also, who did you install Cygwin as and did you install it for "All users"
or "Just me"? The answer to the last part may provide you with the answer
you seek. Otherwise, please provide more specific information as requested
above.
I did install cygwin as Administrator for 'all users'.

Igor,
What is the exact message you get when you try to run Cygwin programs as
another user? Which exact programs fail? Do all the programs fail in
the
same way?
Unfortunetly users that are not in the administrator group cannot even start
a bash. That's why I took an Administrative user to cr
Good morning,
How about when you start bash from a command prompt (i.e., open an "MS DOS
prompt" window, "cd c:\cygwin\bin", and ".\bash.exe --login -i") as a
non-administrative user? What if you omit "--login"?
when I enter ".\bash.exe --login -i" (with or without --login) I get

'mkgroup' is strange. It seems that I cannot synchronize with
our network databases. A mkgroup -u -d DOMAIN gives the
following two lines of output:
LookupAccountName (\\Host, Domain Admins) failed with error 1332
LookupAccountName (\\Host, Domain Users) failed with error 1332
Dear cygwin experts,
I encountered some problems with the mkgroup command during
my trial to get cygwin running on a Windows 2003 server machine

The domain controller is a Linux system running Samba for file
system sharing.

Try giving your cygwin non-admin user accounts the "Create paging files"
privilege and see if that helps. I _think_ you have to do that using the
group policy editor, gpedit.msc.
OK, I did - unfortunately without any change.
How is this Windows information mapped
to cygwin, resp.
Dear Corinna,
although I won't get the group information, it must
be possible to create one manually. What is the
typical syntax of the group info returned by
mkgroup -d DOMAIN?
I could try adding that stuff since I cannot persuade
our domain controller to answer correctly.
Setting up a new Samba
Sorry, I forgot to ask:
what are the default permissions and user/group combinations
after cygwin install?
I have administrator/mkpasswd with access code 750
over the entire cygwin tree.
Should I simply change the group to somethin like 'Users'?

another question to this topic came into my mind:
"why is this all happening only to the Windows Server 2003 machine"?
The same installation with the same configuration runs well with
Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Although the SAMBA problem
appears on all machines. It must have something to do with
Hi Pierre,
thanks first for looking at my problem!
Regarding the CreateFileMapping problem, the message you report is
*** CreateFileMapping, Win32 error 0. Terminating.
but the code in Cygwin is
api_fatal ("CreateFileMapping %s, %E. Terminating.", mapname);
The *** in front is added elsewh

Ah, but then you go and point out that...

That's true. It seems that I have two problems here and the

Creating Various Global Objects May Fail:

Thank you all for your help!
the 'global object privilege' was the reason for
cygwin not running on the Win2003 Server.
As a matter of fact. The original question
started in another thread first and moved to
this one due to two seperate problems.
Do they have the "create global object" privilege?
Sorry Pierre,
I replied to your personal address only, but it was bouncing back.
uname -r says 1.5.5(0.94/3/2)
when I have cygwin installed and update via setup, what I
definitely did, why do I have an older version than expected?
I thought it must be the latest version that I have.

Now I have version 1.5.6(0.108/3/2).
When was this one released?
Shall I revert the privilege stuff to test again?

cool. These tools are really helpful. Same with

Thank's for all the hints and your patience, Igor.

Did you try the "editrights" tool? Grab it using Cygwin's setup.exe.
