Maybe you're not using the latest Cygwin version. There were some issues
with previous releases which you can find in the ML archives. Another
chance is that you changed /etc/group so that Cygwin thinks it has to
add groups to your user token after password authentication took place.
Thanks for replying, Corinna. I installed cygwin just a week or two
ago. To my knowledge I haven't touched /etc/group (after mkgroup).
The relevent parts of /etc/passwd and /etc/group follow. When the
Administrator account ssh's in, it becomes Admistrator. When myoder
ssh's in, I'm sshd_server.
/etc/passwd
Administrator:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:500:513:U-WINBUILD1\Administrator,S-1-5-21-15
27866898-1833586698-2942445752-500:/home/Administrator:/bin/bash
myoder:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:11819:10513:Mike Yoder,U-DOMAIN\myoder,S-1-5-21-3
992547366-3650675702-3870580548-1819:/home/myoder:/bin/bash
/etc/group
None:S-1-5-21-1527866898-1833586698-2942445752-513:513:
Domain Users:S-1-5-21-3992547366-3650675702-3870580548-513:10513:
Anyway, I guess the answer to my greater question about the Microsoft
compiler is "no". Thanks for your help.
