For Azure Domain users (and I do not really know what that means),
pts handling does not seem to work, at least not for mintty, where
forkpty() fails.
Please check https://github.com/mintty/mintty/issues/563 for a discussion,
and my comment
https://github.com/mintty/mintty/issues/563#issuecomment-235310199
Also, there has been a similar report here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2016-02/msg00046.html
I have no idea how to establish a working startup of mintty for those users.
