Maybe I'm not getting things but this seems to be a problem I can not get my head around. I have two w2k boxes on a home network. No domain controllers, just a home network. The box that has the install that works fine for me needs to have cygwin moved over to another box while I reinstall windows to fix some issues that are not cygwin related. I can't just copy files over, the administrator account can't access some files. It can take over ownership and then access them but I'm assuming the various programs set permissions for a reason. I trust you guys more than I trust me on this stuff. How do I move this install? Is there a FAQ for it?
