I can start bash from Windows' command window. From there, I see that there is no /sbin/nologin file, heck there is no /sbin either. A couple of data points: - After the upgrade, I renamed away the /etc passwd and group files. - I was able to open mintty while connect to the network at work I have an almost identical setup on my other windows 7 desktop (always connected to the network) that does not exhibit this problem. I saw some posts from 2011 about creating my own file but I am puzzled as to why I see this on my laptop and not on my desktop. I looked in Windows logs and saw nothing. I saw nothing in /var/log Thanks, Mirko -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
