Your domain user SID will remain the same, however, all of the local machine's domain SIDs will be different as it is a different host on the domain, so I would expect permissions problems for any/all machine specific installations when doing a raw perms copy. > Why should the setup be redone on a new box? > I'd need to do redo all installations, configuration, and so on. I usually do this via script. Besides, after copying, unless you first do a full update on your source every time you'd still need to update to current for the latest fixes. > Besides ths permsissions issue I had, why shouldn't I just copy over > the whole cygwin root directory? > Everything cygwin related should be in there, isn't it? I would imagine all of the *files* are present in the cygwin root, but I've never checked, and a simple file copy, even if the adjustments are made to result in the correct permissions, will not get things like registry entries. (I don't know how many there are, but do know I've seen some). -- Erik ps: this is a "no top posting" email list; please put your comments and responses inline with what your are responding to so you do not disrupt the normal flow of reading. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
