This holds true regardless what server-auth-dir is set to. In order to produce the error, do the following: (1) start emacs -Q. (2) execute in the scratch buffer (require 'server) (setq server-auth-dir "~/") (server-start) (3) go to a cygwin bash (outside emacs) (4) set EMACS_SERVER_FILE to "~/server" (5) run the command emacsclient ~/.emacs and you get the error message from the original post, but you'd expect to get in emacs a buffer displayed with the .emasc file.
