But here there is no SYSTEM acount involved. I tested under the same account as I installed Cygwin. Under exact the same configuration of Cygwin under XP there is no problem. Is this problem solvable, will it be solved soon? I think the same problem could arise on Windows XP with the upcoming service pack.
