I am trying to back up my cygwin installation running as the administrator and am denied rights to read various files in the /home/nameofuser directory structure. I guess I could ssh in as various users and make a tarball but it seems this should be easier. Ideas please? W2K SP4 Outside of core utils, ruby, cron, tcsh the install is current.
