Well, I'm not really sure what to look for either, but let's start
with the environment. When you ssh into your XP32 machine and do
set | grep USER
what do you see? I see
ALLUSERSPROFILE='C:\Documents and Settings\All Users'
USER=dave
USERDOMAIN='NT AUTHORITY'
USERNAME=SYSTEM
USERPROFILE='C:\Documents and Settings\dave'
So it appears XP thinks I"m the local system user. From what I've
read, the local system user doesn't have permission to "net use"
anything. A cygwin shell launched directly under XP32 reports:
ALLUSERSPROFILE='C:\Documents and Settings\All Users'
USER=dave
USERDOMAIN=HYDRA-XP
USERNAME=dave
USERPROFILE='C:\Documents and Settings\dave'
