The test machines also do not have local users, all users come > from N:, and have their home dirs on N: (Windows network share). The problem with installing Cygwin on a network share is that network share could have enforced permissions which are not compatible with Cygwin's requirements, and not all tools are ready to work with UNC paths. This seems to be not your issue, as I can see, but you should keep it in mind nonetheless. Adding to that, Cygwin is installed for specific local environment and cannot me easily transferred to a different one due to potential address mapping issues. So, installing it on a network share thinking it can be "accessed anywhere anytime" is simply not going to work. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Wednesday, May 14, 2025 10:17:53 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
