Sounds like you're out of luck then, unless someone out there has an entire distribution on CD circa Cygwin package version 1.5.4 or you rebuild all the tools you need to match that DLL. You're probably better off convincing the client to update. Either that, or get them to provide you the environment you need to support them. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
