I installed Cygwin over the net in 2004-09-10 to WinXP
where I am using Administrator account and everything
seems to work just fine. However, with the same
installation procedure on Win2000 where I'm just in
the Users group I get:

    440 [main] zsh 1432 fork_copy: linked dll data/bss
pass 0 failed,
0x542000..
0x5427F0, done 0, windows pid 1960, Win32 error 487
/etc/profile:33: fork failed: resource temporarily

 290951 [main] zsh 1432 fork_copy: linked dll data/bss
pass 0 failed,

0x5427F0, done 0, windows pid 2644, Win32 error 487
/home/ttn/.zlogin:6: fork failed: resource temporarily
unavailable

This happen when I replaced "bash --login -i" in
cygwin.bat with "zsh -l" and ran it. Shell (zsh)
built- in commands work, but everything else fails
with same symptoms. Mysteriously, using "bash --login
-i" works just fine and also if I start zsh from bash,
also zsh is working then!

:-O
