Greetings, Thomas Schweikle! > Is it possible to have the same home for Windows and cygwin?
See /etc/nsswitch.conf and https://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html#ntsec-mapping-nsswitch > Using "C:\Users\<user>" for Cygwin home setting mount points for users? I don't get this question. Can you please rephrase? > Or is this a bad idea? Or is it something which has some drawbacks you've > to decide to live with? At the moment the most ugly drawback is duplication > of various data needed within "C:\cygwin\home\<user>" and "C:\Users\<user>". > Would be nice if I could overlay both. There's some caveats to using %USERPROFILE% as $HOME, most notable, you have to be careful with overly sensitive programs, like SSH or GPG. Other than that, the noacl flag on the cygdrive mount will cover you for the time being. I.e.: >> none /cygdrive cygdrive noacl,binary,nouser,posix=0 0 0 And usertemp idea is also a good one: >> none /tmp usertemp binary,nouser,posix=0 0 0 -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Saturday, April 8, 2023 11:09:33 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
