This doesn't sound like the Cygwin apache to me.  Looking at the package
on the web site, it doesn't install 'apache.exe' anywhere.  It installs 
'httpd.exe' in /usr/sbin though.  I suggest that you check your installation
and read the docs that comes with apache (/usr/doc/apache*, 
/usr/doc/Cygwin/apache*) if you haven't already.

Actually, /usr/sbin usually isn't in your path so this is fine.

Perhaps your install wasn't successful then.  You may want to review your
setup logs or just run it again and see if that resolves the problem.

Right.  I answered that above to the best of my ability with the given 
information.

For apache, I answered that above.  For ash, it's actually a cockpit error.
Cygwin installs the 'ash' utility as '/bin/sh'.  Try running 'sh' if you 
want to run 'ash'.
