If this is of any help as far as testing I normally start up multiple sessions
for login using the following for my cygwin.bat file:
@echo off
SET MAKE_MODE=unix
SET CYGWIN=binmode ntsec nostrip_title title tty
SET PATH=d:\cygwin\usr\local\bin;d:\cygwin\usr\bin;d:\cygwin\bin;%PATH%;.
D:
chdir \cygwin
start CMD /c bin\rxvt -geometry 90x30 -fg grey -bg midnightblue -cr red -sr -sl
2000 -fn "Lucida Console-12" -tn rxvt -e /usr/bin/login
start CMD /c bin\login.exe
start CMD /c bin\login.exe
start CMD /c bin\login.exe
exit
Prior to the current snapshot depending on system load I might or might not get
4 sessions started as they should be with a login prompt. With the current
snapshot 20040517 this has worked successfully repeated times with some heavy
loads on my laptop.
