Can anyone help with the following problem:

I'm using an el-cheapo telnet daemon that allows me to telnet into my
NT4.0 box from my UNIX box.  From that window I can run bash.  I can
then run all the UNIX commands, provided I am in the
//D/cygnus/H-i386-cygwin32/bin directory  (This directory IS in my
PATH).  If I change directory out of there, and run any of the commands
(such as ls), I get the following error:

bash: fork: No such file or directory

I assume that it cannot find the cygwin.dll file or something like that.
However, even if I copy the cygwin.dll to the directory that I am in, I
still get the same error.

Any ideas ??

Thanks in advance for  any help given.
