I moved sh.exe to sh.old
and then linked bash.exe to sh.exe and now the configure script gets through
that test ok.

this is the output of ls -la
total 2
drwxr-xr-x   2 administ Domain A        0 Dec 23 16:04 .
drwxr-xr-x  10 administ Domain A        0 Dec 23 12:09 ..

should the '.' entry date change depending on the date and time the last
file in the dir was changed? I can't check on a un*x system at the moment

thanks
