--text follows this line--
================================================================
Dear Bug Team!
The following is a new behavior introduced in Version 21.4.20 and
present in 21.4.21 and in 21.5-b28. Version 21.4.19 does not exhibit
this behavior.
I run XEmacs Native on my Windows XP desktop. I also run CYGWIN. I use
a Samba server from Windows to access my many Unix based files on a
Unix Server.
When I try to edit a file, e.g., .cshrc, the file comes up
read-only. When I try to write a file to my "Unix Home" I get a
protection violation for the directory. I get the feeling that
something must have changed in how XEmacs presents my "credentials" to
Samba.
My account name on Windows was changed over a year ago from Plipman to
lipman so that it matched my Unix account name. There are environment
variables on Windows which could be contributing to this problem.
USERNAME=lipman
USER=PLipman ** Suspicious **
LOGNAME=PLipman ** Suspicious **
COMPUTERNAME=PLIPMAN-D530
HOSTNAME=PLIPMAN-D530
DISPLAY=PLIPMAN-D530.americas.hpqcorp.net:0.0
It strikes me as conceivable that the newer versions of XEmacs are
using USER and/or LOGNAME differently than 21.4.19.
I have no proof of this, but it seems possible that XEmacs is
presenting PLipman instead of lipman as the account name and that is
what is causing my being denied write access to the Unix directories
owned by lipman.
Thanks for whatever you can do to help.
Peter Lipman
