#26 Login fails on WinXP

[Noel O'Boyle]

I have used ReleaseForge (RF) without problems (indeed
it's worked like a dream :-) on Linux, but I have yet
to get it to work on WinXP.

This is what happens...

(1) I installed RF 1.1 on WinXP
(releaseforge-1.1-win32.exe)
(2) I set HOME to C:\Cygwin\home\AvrilNoel (in
System/Environment Variables)

Here's the proof:

C:\Cygwin\home\AvrilNoel\.releaseforge>echo %HOME%
C:\Cygwin\home\AvrilNoel

(3) I ran RF from the command prompt
(4) I entered my user name and password but it just says:
"Unable to login to sourceforge. Please verify your
username and password" (The McAfee firewall popped up,
but I said yes...I've verified this by going into the
settings)

The following appeared at the command prompt:

C:\Cygwin\home\AvrilNoel\.releaseforge>"C:\Program

Files\ReleaseForge\releasefor

ge.exe"

Have you ever gotten this to work on windows from the
RF exe?
