I am running cygwin/X under XP/Pro power user
not administrator and I have no problems (with cygwin/X, i.e.).
However, I am connoisseur of all but guru of none.

Subject: running CygwinX with a limited user account
To the Gurus of CygwinX,
I've noticed that in order to run CygwinX on separate accounts on the same
machine, all users must have "computer administrator" privileges under the
Windows XP Professional operating system. Is there any work around to
allow users with "limited" privileges (such as my daughter) to access
CygwinX? Cygwin does not seem to have this problem. Thanks for a great
product and hopefully a response to this question.
Bart Bacon
