***BOGO*** Can't Change Home Dir

["Richard Plana" <Richard.Plana@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I can't seem to change my user's HOME dir so that it uses
"/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/" as its prefix. I've changed the
home dir entry in the /etc/passwd file, but each time I connect, $HOME
is still set to using "/home/" (which is under Cygwin's root). I've
logged off all cygwin shells, rebooted my machine, but I can't get the
configuration to take. The FAQ just talks of changing /etc/passwd (which
I've done) and XP's HOME* variables (which don't seem to be used
anyway).

Help appreciated.
