Have you ever tried from MSDOS to do cd dir1/dir1a/dir1a1? The result will be a cd to dir1 with no error message. Instead of building gnumake with VC++ use the cygwinb19 gcc tools. bash# configure bash# make - \\||// ---o0O0--Earnie--0O0o---- --earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com-- ------ooo0O--O0ooo------- Please, research your question via the Searchable Mail Archives first. http://www.cygnus.com/ml/gnu-win32 (Searchable Mail Archives) Check out these great gnu-win32 related sites: ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/gnu-win32/latest/ (ftp site) http://www.cygnus.com/pubs/gnupro/ (Comercial Page) http://www.cygnus.com/misc/gnu-win32/ (Project Page) http://dvpraktikum.informatik.uni-koeln.de:3232/ (Cygwin32 Porting Project) http://www.lexa.ru/sos (Sergey Okhapkin) ftp://www.lexa.ru/pub/domestic/sos/ (Sergey's ftp site) http://www.fu.is.saga-u.ac.jp/~colin/gcc.html (Colin Peters - Mingw32) http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/ (Mumit Khan) ftp://ftp.hksys.com/pub/mirrors/EGCS-Win32/ (Jeremy Bettis - mirror) http://gnu-win32.paranoia.ru (Chuck Bogorad's ports) http://www.downloadwizard.com/ak/gnu-win32/bash.html (GNU-Win32 Bash Configuration) http://rcw.home.ml.org/ (Rob Warner - software ports) http://www.parallax.co.uk/~andyp/index_text.html (Andy Piper - ports) http://www.tiac.net/users/cgf (Christopher Faylor - package ports) http://minimike.franken.de/docs/develop/gnuwin32/GNUWin32.txt (Package Porting Notes) ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin32/ (German mirror) http://www.dol.ru/users/valtul (Valery Tulnikov - software ports) ftp://ftp.cs.nyu.edu/pub/local/fox/cygwin32 (David fox - RPM packages) http://www.itribe.net/virtunix/winhelp-man-pages/ (HTML Man Pages) Help for Win32 Beginners: http://www.relisoft.com http://www.program.com/resources/win32.html DISCLAIMER: These links or links from these pages to other sites do not constitute an endorsement of any entities, advertisers, products or services therein.
