RE: Home directory in Windows 2000 environment while as user

         Sorry there remained a little bit of HTML script. Now I hope to get some good advise.

 

Hello,

I installed cygwin from the internet while I was in the administrator area. I used DOS and all users. After installing when I clicked on the cygwin icon it made the home directory. Now when I click on the cygwin icon from the administrator area (administrator logon) I am put in in the cygwin window with the directory administrator at dilipp which is very good, dilipp being the name of the computer. Now if I login  as user pauldk, and then I click on the cygwin icon I  am not sent to the cygwin/home area , rather pauldk at dilipp area, under which I can see all my folders including cygwin. As I am trying to call cygwin from another fortran program, it fouls up the execution of the program as I need to be in the home directory. My concern is   to rectify this situation. May I need to change/add a line in the profile.

I appreciate your help.

Thanks, 
Dilip K. Paul 

P.S. When I installed cygwin from the pauldk user area, I always got into pauldk at dilipp which is precisely I like to avoid.
