If after doing this you still have problems resubmit the cygcheck -s -v -r output. == - \\||// -------------------o0O0--Earnie--0O0o------------------- -- earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com -- -- http://www.freeyellow.com/members5/gw32/index.html -- ----------------------ooo0O--O0ooo---------------------- PS: Newbie's, you should visit my page. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
