Well Jeremy, it would have been helpful and accomodating of you to have jotted down the relevent info in the reply, rather than just simply saying "I know". For everyone else, the clue is the override option. So put this in /etc/fstab: C:/cygwin/bin /usr/bin ntfs text,override C:/cygwin/lib /usr/lib ntfs text,override C:/cygwin / ntfs text,override This sets everything to textmode. We use dos based editors and so we need this as everytime we edit it a script file somewhere in the system, it gets written as a dos mode file. If you don't need eveything changed, then omit the appropriate lines as necessary. Hope this helps everyone Paul. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
