Thanks. I would feel better with a solution that doesn't change my permissions if they don't really need to be changed. Here's another thought: is the problem only with the "/home" directory that Cygwin setup creates (ex: /cygdrive/c/cygwin/home)? If so, would it be possible to only modify that original "/home" directory, and not whatever directory "/home" might now point to? -- 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
