I just recently downloaded the GNU utilities on my NT machine and found out that every utility (ls, mv,) works ok except that I cannot reference another device (ie: cp filea a:/). I have tried all types of variations to the device name but it still takes it as a filename or directory specification. Am I missing something??? Regards, John - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
