Actually, I have to say I didn't try that and I really should have before anything else. Instead I went to the Web site and checked to make sure I could access the file and then downloaded from there. But like I say the rest of the install from the downloaded directory went fine. > If you double-click the new cygwin icon on the desktop and you get a > working bash shell, I guess it's working.

You mention /etc/passwd and /etc/group on Win9X and I did get the error messages that I believe you added that it couldn't create them but I have tried anything else with them - I just go to a straight bash shell. Can you use then login program and passwd and group files on a Win9x machine. Brian Keener bkeener AT thesoftwaresource DOT com 75462 DOT 747 AT compuserve DOT com Virtual Access 5.50 build 311 Win95
