 Subject: XWin -- Problem
 Xwin doesn't start. Please help. The log-File ist attached. It seems to be a 
 problem with the multiuser environment. Running XWin as a 
 Windows-Administrator is no problem, but running as an restricted user fails.

 please help ... quick

 regards alex

 Sorry, if the solution is in a forum, I really searched hard, but found only 
 others who had the same problem but no solution...

 Subject: ssh config

        I'm trying to set up shortcuts in ~/.ssh/config, but it doesn't seem 
 to work.  I add:

 Host slate
    Hostname quarry.slate-gravel.com
    User fred

        ...but when I try to use it:

 [SNIP]
 host ssh slate
 ssh: Could not resolve hostname slate: no address associated with name
 host
 [/SNIP]

        What am I missing here?


        Thanks,

 Mike

 Check your /etc/passwd file
 It's possible that ~ isn't really your home directory

        Well that was it, thanks, but why is ssh looking there?  I thought it 
 (and all other apps) used HOME on cygwin?


        Thanks,

 Mike

 Nope.  But if you think about it, if $HOME doesn't equal ~ for Cygwin,
 something has gone awry.  Given that as context, it really wouldn't matter
 whether '/etc/passwd' or $HOME was the source.

Harry,

Any reason you chose to spam this list with your digest and expose raw
