I'm setting up OpenSSH server under Cygwin on my WinXP box at work. My home directory on my system is a mounted folder:
//someserver/users/billk When I open a normal cygwin terminal shell, I land at the mountpoint I have for that folder, my "H:" drive. In cygwin lingo, that's: /cygdrive/h/ However, when I try to ssh into my box (e.g,: "ssh localhost" from within a cygwin terminal), I get complaints that my home directory is inaccessible: Could not chdir to home directory //someserver/users/billk: Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists Copying skeleton files. These files are for the user to personalise their cygwin experience. These will never be overwritten. /usr/bin/install: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists /usr/bin/install: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists /usr/bin/install: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists -bash: cd: //someserver/users/billk: Permission denied I've Googled and found references to "SYSTEM" (uh...?) and messing with cygwin's "mount" command, but I've had little luck, and am not sure what a good _permanent_ solution is. (In other words, when I come in tomorrow and reboot, I can simply "ssh" without manually mucking with things beforehand.) (Oh, and FWIW, I'm doing this on my desktop as a sandbox for something we'll be running on *ugh* a Windows-based server here at work.) Thx in advance! -- -bill!
