There have a few threads on this subject over the years: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-01/msg00651.html http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2007-11/msg00473.html http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2007-January/012450.html
The gist is that cl works from Windows, but dies with: Fatal Error C1902: Program database manager mismatch; please check your installation. when invoked from a ssh session using a different account than the account sshd is running under. With cygwin-1.7 on Server 2008, sshd seems to work better than in the past (tasklist no longer hangs), but I still get this error when using VC9. Has anyone else either run into this, or gotten it working with 1.7? thanks, jim -- 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
