One of the things that your users have been bitten of with the newer
cygwin1.dll is that they impose a stronger authentication mechanism (ntsec
is on per default). This is often brought up here by users that are have
upgraded their version.

Please (re)consider supporting a cygwin package via the cygwin setup - I
can assure you that your application will be much more visible if you are
able to do that (or have somebody to support you doing that) - I  would
love to have a maintained hercules environment on my machine allthough the
license problems for Z/OS in my environment would make me violate the Z/OS
license (now compare that to the GBL ;-)....

If I find the time I will try to install Hercules on my Cygwin environment
which is allways kept on the (b)leeding edge...- - please do not leave us
too soon....

Med venlig hilsen / Regards
Franz Wolfhagen
