1.5.14 non-admin account problems

- Subject: 1.5.14 non-admin account problems
For the past couple of days I have been trying to get non-admin accounts
working under cygwin. Whenever I try to start cygwin after logging into
windows with a non-admin account or try to ssh using a non-admin account
I get the following errors:
Last login: Fri Apr 15 09:43:31 2005 from sms-mh
bash.exe: warning: could not find /tmp, please create!
-bash: /etc/profile: Permission denied
-bash: /home/sms2/.bash_profile: Permission denied
I cannot change directories or execute any commands except "pwd" and
"echo". (error: "-bash: fork: Permission denied") The one other
strange thing is that the CYGWIN variable does not get defined when
logging in with a non-admin user.
I figured it was a permissioning problem so I added the non-admin user
to the Administrators group in /etc/passwd, and the user could login
fine with ssh. After searching the mailing lists and google, I've tried
a number of different things to fix this. I changed my CYGWIN variable
to "ntsec notransverse", rebooted and still got the error. I've changed
folder and file owner/group with chown. I've tried changing permissions
on different files and folders using Windows Security, chmod and
setfacl. I've had to uninstall and reinstall a couple of times from
changing permissions and screwing up the install. At this point I don't
know what else to try.
These permissions do not look correct to me, but I do not know which
files/directories need to be changed and what exactly they should be
changed to.
$ getfacl /bin
# file: /bin
# owner: sms
# group: Users
user::---
group::---
mask:rwx
other:rwx
default:other:rwx
Pretty much all directories and files have the above permissions except
for /home.
$ getfacl /home
# file: /home
# owner: sms
# group: None
user::rwx
group::rwx
mask:rwx
other:rwx
default:user::rwx
default:group::rwx
default:other:rwx
I am running Windows 2000 Server fully patched. C: is formatted NTFS.
System name "sms-mh"
"sms" - user I installed cygwin with. under windows security, member
of Administrators
"sms2" - non-admin user I am having problems with. under windows
security, member of Users
Where I'm at right now:
Logged into windows as "sms", I uninstalled cygwin (removed "Cygnus
Solutions" registry entries from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE and HKEY_USERS_.DEFAULT and the sshd key from
CurrentControlSet\services, deleted c:\cygwin, rebooted) and then
reinstalled cygwin (base packages plus "vim," "less," "ssh") Started
cygwin: /home/sms, .bashrc, .bash_profile, .inputrc were created. Ran
"ssh_host_config", answered yes to "privelege separation", yes to
"install as service", entered "ntsec notransverse" for "CYGWIN=". Ran
"cygrunsrv --start sshd". Connected as "sms" using ssh okay. Tried to
connect as "sms2" received error. Added "sms2" to Administrators group
under cygwin (in /etc/passwd changed "xp:1005:513" to "xp:1005:544")
Connected as "sms2" okay. Home directory and files were created. Moved
"sms2" back to group "none" (:513) Tried to ssh as "sms2" received error.
Any help would be appreciated. If this is a simple fix and has been
talked about before in the mailing lists, I apologize for wasting your
time. (I swear I did numerous searches before posting this) If you
need any other info, just let me know.
Again, thanks.
