Hi folks,

I've installed cygwin and sitecopy.  When I try to run sitecopy from  
the bash prompt, nothing happens:  i.e., not even an error message:

[113 Workstation:~]$ uname
CYGWIN_NT-5.1
[114 Workstation:~]$ sitecopy -V
[115 Workstation:~]$

sitecopy appears to be installed OK:  'which sitecopy' returns /usr/ 
local/bin/sitecopy, and if I run it from the DOS prompt I get the  
expected error message (the docs say to run it from bash, not DOS).

Windows XP SP2, CYGWIN_NT-5.1, sitecopy-cygwin-0.16.2

I followed the instructions per <http://www.lyra.org/sitecopy/cygwin/ 
sc-cygwin-tips.html>:

1. Downloaded cygwin (including bash, cygwin, libiconv, libxml2 and  
gettext).

2. Downloaded binary of sitecopy from <http://www.lyra.org/sitecopy/ 
cygwin/index.html>.  Unzipped into appropriate subdirectories in /usr/ 
local

Any clues?  Anywhere I should be looking for error logs?

(I should probably be on the sitecopy mailing list, but the joining  
mechanism appears to be broken, and I haven't (yet) received a reply  
from the administrator...)

Thanks.
