Dear All,

I'm running the latst release of Cygwin but am still having problems with the ftp
daemon. It reports that it cannot find my home directory after entering my username and
password. Typing 'cd ~username' gets me to the right place and telnet and sshd seem to
find my home directory.

Can anyone suggest where to start lookign to track this down or has anyone else solved
the problem? I suspect it is a permissions problem, but not sure what!

I realise I'm not giving you much information here. If anyone needs more, just let me
know.

Many thanks in advance.

Regards,
Tony.
