You may have some leftovers from a previous installtion of cygwin; see http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/cygwin/2000-05/msg00844.html. BTW, I'm also a bit perplexed about /bin vs. /usr/bin ... There's a discussion about it starting at about this message http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2000-02/msg00132.html (on the cygwin-developers list). I've read most of what I could find about the 'FS layout', but I didn't get any wiser. So I continue to use identity mounts, Device Directory Type Flags I: / system binmode C: /c system binmode D: /d system binmode and I install distribution tarballs by untar'ing myself. Works OK for me. kind regards Peter Ring -----Original Message----- From: Edward Muller [mailto:emuller AT PaineWebber DOT COM] Sent: Thursday, June 15, 2000 2:03 AM To: 'earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com' Cc: Cygwin (E-mail) Subject: RE: telnet problems with current cygwin version Does this seem right? why does starting inetd reset mount points?

All of that work for not. Based on what you currently have your mount table should be: c:\cygwin / user textmode c:\cygwin\bin /usr/bin user textmode c:\cygwin\lib /usr/lib user textmode Regards, ===== --- Earnie Boyd: __Cygwin: POSIX on Windows__ Cygwin Newbies: __Minimalist GNU for Windows__ Mingw32 List: Mingw Home: __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
