Try installing the 'rebase' package from 'setup.exe', stopping all Cygwin services (like 'sshd'), exiting all Cygwin programs (including the (bash) shell), and from a DOS box/cmd.exe prompt, run "C:\cygwin\bin\rebaseall", assuming your Cygwin installation is in "C:\Cygwin". Do this on the server machine. Assuming you get no errors in this process, this should help. If it doesn't, please follow the problem reporting guidelines at . Provide cygcheck information for both the server and the client machine, in addition to the other information requested. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
