RE: Mount problems (was RE: SSHD: works from command line, but not from INETD)


Thanks a lot. That worked. Looking through the registry, I found some
additional entries that look like they're from old versions of Cygwin. For
example, can I delete:

CURRENT USER/Software/Cygnus Solution/CYGWIN.DLL setup
  anything else ending in CYGWIN.DLL setup
LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Cygnus Solutions/Cygwin B20
  anything else ending in Cygwin B20
LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Cygnus Solutions/GNUPro
  anything else ending in GNUPro

Thanks.
