Thanks for your response. I did indeed go through this material. 
Unfortunately, I have no error messages or log that I am aware of with more 
detailed information. If there is one, I would like to see it and would send 
it along as well. Meanwhile, my only guess might be an errant or 
missing .bashrc.

My linux boot is Debian and I am not familiar with the differences in 
RH/Fedora which seem the basis for Cygwin (i.e., fstab, ppp stuff in /etc. 
are absent but not relevant to the problem at hand.)
