This works fine. On my new 64-bit Win7 box running Cygwin 1.7.29, I created the symlink using "ln -s" as before. When I try to execute the script through the symlink, it fails to find it in the path. The script itself has the rx bits set. I can execute the script directly, although it doesn't do anything useful. I didn't see anything obvious in the FAQ or obvious searches. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
