A bash prompt? I used the shortcut, c:/cygwin/cygwin.bat to run bash. As soon as I do this, Kaspersky Internet Security 2009, which can track applications as well as network activity, informs me that the following unix bin commands are run: bash, id, chmod, tr, hostname, find, sort, echo, grep, uname, and regtool. When it happened the first time I could have sworn it was regedit instead of regtool. I am assuming that what I am seeing is OK, but I think I will dig down and see what the bash related scripts are doing....its starting to come back to me now....its been several years since I used UNIX... (I've got an OLD IBM manual on my shelf that instructs me on how to install my 8K board in my PC; and other DOS PC users used to drive me crazy because nobody understood that there were things called file directories that one could use instead of putting all of your files and applications in the main directory.) > Process explorer[1] can tell you what application accessed the registry, > Thanks, I've been wanting programs like the process explorer and the process monitor. > -- Barry > -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
