Well if that isn;t working it sounds like there's something wrong with your
setup (you did install reabase, right?). Can you attach the output of
`cygcheck -svr' as a *non-compressed* plain text attachment? It might help
shed some light on whats wrong.

Hmmm, t'is just me being silly. What I meant to say was 'flock'.

You can roll back to a previous version of Cygwin (although 1.3.22 is
apparently more-stable, from discussions on the list) using setup.exe, and
when you get to the package listing click on Cygwin until it display's a
previous version (1.3.20 might be your best bet).

Not too sure. :/
