Recently, Im able to fire up my Cygwin client with no problem but I cant perform any network operations other than being able to ping myself and the gateway, any other type of network action (resolution, getting past my gateway) fails with no useful message.
Im guessing that this might be a user profile issue since our office is managed by Microsoft Security. I used my normal mkpasswd -l [-d] > /etc/passwd mkgroup -l [-d] > /etc/group to set them up. Heres my entry in passwd: furashg:unused:102527:10513:U-CATNET\furashg,S-1-5-21-3885614643-332083874-8 14631590-92527:/cygdrive/c/users/furashg:/bin/bash Heres the matching group entry in /etc/group - Domain Users:S-1-5-21-3885614643-332083874-814631590-513:10513: Strangely, the U-CATNET\ above doesnt correspond to any line by name in group. When I logon to my computer its as \catnet\furashg. All network activity is fine if I run the DOS prompt and just add Cygwin executable to my path. gary furash | email: fura...@alumni.bowdoin.edu; mobile: 520-907-2470; share:http://bit.ly/zwgMAI -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
