Probably the easiest way to get feedback on whether this is a user error or not is to send a STC <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#STC> so that it's easy for someone else to run your example and see the results. It also would clarify exactly what you're doing, so there's no guess-work involved. I'd also recommend sending your 'cygcheck -s -r -v' output as requested by <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>, if you haven't already as part of this thread. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
