I was an early poster on this problem and have not resolved it yet -- just living with it since it is a single user installation. My guess is that it has to do with Windows security policies. I am running XP SP1 with the problem. At work we run WS2003 with no problem. What is your OS?

I'm get the mkpasswd error now even though I wasn't getting it before. I've tried this on several machines now running both XP and Vista without much luck. Therefore it doesn't appear to be a OS problem. I saw the previous thread that said: "Nothing Cygwin can do anything about. The access denied error came directly from the Windows system call NetUserEnum. The culprit is on the server side which returns the user records." However, I didn't see what I need to change on the Windows system side to fix this problem. My System Admin is willing to make changes, but we need to know what needs to change? Does anyone have any idea? thanks, Jerome -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
