I will try it. It is only to support the CVS software. I guess it wouldnt be the end of the world to use 1.1.7. Anything to keep from giving Microshaft money for Visual Source Safe.

The version 1.1.7 net release has many improvements over 1.0 and is used by thousands. BTW, Red Hat no longer produces the CD for sale. Your best bet is to use the current net release, http://cygwin.com/setup.exe. Cheers, Earnie. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
