Removing /sys will help you troubleshoot that. Well, I can't really take out /sys, because that's my system32 folder, and I doubt that Windows would boot if I did that. I umounted /sys and took ~/bin out of my path, nothing's changed. Here's another funny thing: "command -V" in Bash returns the NT find, while cygcheck finds the right one. Aren't they supposed to find the same program, following PATH? Here's what I'm talking about, along with some other output to assist: bono@BOB ~ $ command -V find.exe find.exe is /c/WINNT/system32/find.exe bono@BOB ~ $ cygcheck find.exe Found: d:\cygwin\bin\find.exe d:\cygwin\bin\find.exe d:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll C:\WINNT\System32\KERNEL32.dll C:\WINNT\System32\NTDLL.DLL Use -h to see help about each section bono@BOB ~ $ echo $PATH /usr/local/bin:/bin:/c/WINNT/system32:/c/WINNT:/c/WINNT/system32/WBEM:/prog/ Support Tools/:/prog/Resource Kit/:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/prog/Microsoft Visual Studio/Common/Tools/WinNT:/prog/Microsoft Visual Studio/Common/MSDev98/Bin:/prog/Microsoft Visual Studio/Common/Tools:/prog/Microsoft Visual Studio/VC98/bin bono@BOB /bin $ ls -l |grep find.exe -rwxr-xr-x 1 bono None 53760 Jan 18 2000 find.exe -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
