It appears as if your home directory is on the H drive and this is mounted from another system. Thus CYGWIN=ntsec does not apply because this is a share mounted using SMB. Thus, as I said before, you need to set CYGWIN=smbntsec and try again.

My apologies for missing your earlier reply; the joke is on me, actually, as your suggestion did the trick - I could have spared
myself some frustration yesterday :-) Anyway, thank you.

You're welcome. To me it's just not natural to think of having ntsec without smbntsec. I forget what, if any, issues might have been involved. I can't think of a situation where you'd want Cygwin to honor ntsec but not honor smbntsec...
