You'll find this subject comes up with some regularity. See the email archives for more details. Generally speaking, 'login' is not meant to be used directly by the user from Cygwin. Use OpenSSH or telnet (for example) if you just want to "login" to Cygwin locally or remotely.

I installed cygwin under windows2000. And when I tried to login into cygwin, I used the same username and paasword as I log in to my nt machine.But it always failed. So how to fix the problem here? I have tried to installed ntsec under NT and set system var CYGWIN=ntsec, and I try to log in as nt username and password again, still incorrect. what is the problem then? Really hope to get helps! thanks a lot! lufang _________________________________________________________________ 享用世界上最大的电子邮件系统— MSN Hotmail。 http://www.hotmail.com -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
