It *looks*, at this point that my userid isn't being passed from inetd to rlogind so it can read the ".rhosts" file in my WIN-HOME (USERPROFILE or HOMEDRIVE:\HOMEPATH).
---- Not quite sure how 'rlogin.exe' as "spawned" by "inetd.exe" gets my UID as it's env already seems clear (Has PATH(long), SYSTEMDRIVE SYSTEMROOT and WINDIR)... but nothing identifying my home dir, except the 'token' as passed from 'inetd.exe' which I re-started manually, interactively, after re-installing the earlier version of cygwin and "cycling" all the cygwin processes.
However 'rlogin' DOES read C:\Users\law.Bliss\.rhosts in the previous cygwin version (1.7.33-1) and is able to launch 'login' which launches 'bash' as a login shell w/no PW. -- 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
