Was that after or before login into ssh? Are you sure there is only one /etc/group file in your system and the mount points are the same for sshd and you? Verify before and after ssh login. Wait, it must be OK because editing passwd seems to have an effect Another verification is to edit group and change some text, e.g. Domain Users -> XXXXX and see if it has any effect. > $ cat /etc/group > SYSTEM:S-1-5-18:18: > clearcase:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-1078:1078: > Domain Admins:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-512:512: > Domain Guests:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-514:514: > Domain Users:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-513:513: > ncp:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-1077:1077:xxjames > ncp_modoc:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-1095:1095: > ncppc:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-1023:1023: > NCPSERVE:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-1005:1005: > nice:S-1-5-21-24129212-729888505-1120166462-1006:1006: I cut and pasted your group, changed my passwd gid to 1077 in my passwd. ******************************** ~> ssh localhost Last login: Tue Nov 5 11:34:19 2002 from localhost Fanfare!!!

Very strange. > I wonder if there is a registry setting that is holding onto the gid. No registry, the gid is purely a Cygwin thing. Let's clarify if changing the gid in passwd affects id when you restart Cygwin if the mounts are the same before and after you ssh if the problem persists if you stop and restart sshd What version are you using?
