ERROR CANT ACCESS DOMAIN INFO

From EggeWiki

Over the weekend the office switched our home directories over to a Netapp file server. This has foobar'd my Cygwin environment. When I attempt to launch a shell, it displays this message an exits:

<geshi lang="dos"> C:\cygwin\bin>bash --login Copying skeleton files. These files are for the user to personalise their cygwin experience.

These will never be overwritten.


C:\cygwin\bin> </geshi>

From cygcheck, I should see this file information <geshi> c: hd NTFS 76230Mb 55% CP CS UN PA FC d: cd CDFS 446Mb 100% CS UN 090716_1323 f: fd FAT32 977Mb 84% CP UN USB1GB g: net N/A N/A h: net NTFS 460800Mb 73% CP CS UN PA Users z: net NTFS 460800Mb 73% CP CS UN PA Users

cygcheck: dump_sysinfo: GetVolumeInformation() for drive G: failed: 1351 </geshi>

This led me to the [1351 error].

Disconnecting this drive unfortunately did not fix anything.

The problem seems to be that Cygwin doesn't recognize my home directory as being a directory. <geshi lang="bash"> $ pwd /cygdrive/z $ echo $HOME /cygdrive/z $ [ -d "${HOME}" ] || echo "Home is not a directory" Home is not a directory </geshi>

This is very odd. I tried a reboot, and faced the same problem.

Next, I tried unsetting CYGWIN=tty ntea. This let me in, and Cygwin didn't complain about my keys not be unprotected. This setting is contrary to my previous advise in setting the variable.
