Hello all,
lately I found the reason for this odd behaviour that my path is ignored in
bash. The main reason causing it was the activation of ntsec in my new
profile. After activation /bin/find.exe has follwing settings:
$ ls -l /bin/find.exe
-rwx------ 1 admins nobody 78848 20. May 05:39 /bin/find.exe
while the other find has:
$ ls -l /cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32/find.exe
-rwxrwxr-x 1 admins system 10000 4. May 2001
/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32/find.exe
bash will find and execute with ntsec always
/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32/find.exe independently where the path for
/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32 is in the PATH! Applications applications in /bin
will be found and executed if there is no other executable with same name
(behaviour does not apply to more.exe/more.com) with a "better" ACL.
After changing owner and group of the files and a restart of the shell,
/bin/find.exe is found first and the system behaves as expected! Note: The
behaviour could only be observed for bash, any other shell on my system
(ash, tcsh, zsh, cygtclsh80) did not have this problem.
Regards,
Jörg
