Just a couple of questions: 1) telnetd: This works using sh as the shell. However, I'd like to use 4nt as the shell, rather than /bin/sh. I edited passwd, and replaced "/bin/sh" with "/cygdrive/c/4nt/4nt.exe". Now, however, when I telnet to my machine, I'm immediately logged off, as in: You are successfully logged in to this ftp server!!! Connection closed by foreign host. How can I get 4nt.exe to be used as the login shell? Followon - after manually editing passwd again using EMACS, putting /bin/sh back again, it still doesn't work until I run mkpasswd again. What's going on here? 2) ftpd: I can log in, and change directories fine, but when I type "dir" or "ls", nothing actually appears on the screen. For example, ftp> dir 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for '/bin/ls'. 226 Transfer complete. ftp> When I type "set" at a command prompt, I see CYGWIN=binmode tty ntsec 3) talk: Always gives the following error: [c:\]talk user AT machine Error opening terminal: cygwin.
