And I am trying to activating root access, follwing the instructions. http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html Nevertheless, I don't succeed in managing the root access, so i can not login with the login command. Are there any typical instructions for windows xp, since there is not really a administrator login under windows xp, only a root login. But from this one under cygwin he doesn't accept the password. I can telnet on the server by root and root-password, but I cannot achieve to use login command. I alway receive error : $ login login: root Password: Fanfare!!! You are successfully logged in to this server!!! login: no shell: /bin/bash: Permission denied Hereby my (lightly changed) /etc/passwords and /etc/group DOMAIN\Johan::1006:513:U-DOMAIN\Johan,S-1-5-21-2008529862-4024994690-255 2189465-1006:/home/Johan:/bin/bash root::0:0:root,U-DOMAIN\root,S-1-5-21-2008529862-4024994690-2552189465-1 007:/home/root:/bin/bash $ cat /etc/group Everyone:S-1-1-0:0: SYSTEM:S-1-5-18:18: None:S-1-5-21-2008529862-4024994690-2552189465-513:513: root:S-1-5-32-544:0: Guests:S-1-5-32-546:546: Users:S-1-5-32-545:545: HelpServicesGroup:S-1-5-21-2008529862-4024994690-2552189465-1001:1001: cat /etc/gr Anybody suggestions ?
