Look what you've started now....

I'm running into the same problem now, after we've been
migrated into an Active Directory Domain. It appears to be
a cygwin issue; maybe with the SIDs in the user account of
the logged-on ssh user.

I got the same results with my account and with the
local Administrator account. I ran getsid to find out
what the correct SIDs were, and modified \etc\passwd and
\etc\group on the target server to match (they were
different from the pre-migration SIDs). No change...

If I ssh into the server, then run cmd to get a command
prompt, net view and net use work as they should.
That's why I think it's a cygwin issue.

I haven't updated my cygwin files since July, so
I'll start there and see if it changes anything.

I don't think I've been of any help, but this may
assure you that you aren't alone!

Jim
