Off-hand, I would suspect that the newer Cygwin has code that tries to access a network resource (perhaps because you have a "//name" in your $PATH, or perhaps because of local vs. network username), and that the process hangs waiting for the resource to time out when you have the cable plugged in (or even has a bug that causes an inf-loop), but quickly falls back to something that works when the network is not present. Corinna will have more ideas about how to test which particular network call is hanging, as well as being more familiar with recent changes in network username validation, for ideas on better debugging this. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3226 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org -- 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
