I will look into supporting the wincrypt API in the Cygwin build, but I wouldn't hold your breath if I were you. It might also be possible to turn on the GNOME keyring or KWallet support, although again I'm not sure. -- David Rothenberger ---- daveroth@acm.org Volunteer Cygwin subversion maintainer. -- 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
