RE: Location changes in registry not reflected in SFTP

Oh, you want to remount the /home directory to a different physical
location.  You can use the mount facility to mount /home to a
/cygdrive/d/unixhomes type of path.  I think the registry key to force
this as a cygwin global is:


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2\/home]
"native"="C:\\somefolder/somesubfolder/cygwinhomes"
"flags"=dword:0000000a
 

Regards,
Armand

Hello David,

Thank you for the quick response. Yes, I know about changing the
location in passwd file, but what I want to do is specify a different
location for the whole /home.

I could also use /cygdrive/, but I would really prefer using the
registry, because it would also allow me to define or modify other main
folders as well.


Best regards,
Sebastian
