Make expects to find that /bin/sh program.  It's not something you can get
around.  If you want to use make from outside of bash, make a C:\bin and
put a copy of sh.exe in it.  (Assuming your running off of C-drive.) 

If your files are on the network at G:\whatever, then I believe (but am
not sure) that make will look for G:\bin\sh.exe.

I run under Win'95 as well, and have not found any way around this.  Even
if sh.exe is somewhere else on the path, make looks for it in /bin.

If you were running out of bash, you could mount the /bin as wherever your
sh.exe is located.



See ya around the Mulberry bush.
