The current cyglsa-config script does not detect a failure in regtool that cannot read the LSA Authentication Packages registry entry, $ regtool get /HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Lsa/Authentication\ Packages Error (2): The system cannot find the file specified. $ cat /proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Lsa/Authentication\ Packages $ reg query 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa' /v 'Authentication Packages' ! REG.EXE VERSION 3.0 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa Authentication Packages REG_SZ msv1_0 As a consequence, cyglsa-config drops "msv1_0" from the key value because it succeeds in setting it with the wrong set of values. (I am not sure why my entry has type REG_SZ while I see online posts mentioning type REG_MULTI_SZ). Whether regtool and cyglsa-config are fixed or not, I am suggesting to document the side effects resulting from the corrupt entry value or from the possible bugs in the added DLL. I spent many hours trying to find the cause of these effects. The suggested documentation addition is attached. --
