It works fin but could not find anyway to have root user. It is different form the standard linux which start in root user and allow root user to create user accout. I have problem in install some package into cygwin by "sh" command. which reqired to be execute in root user level. Could you have some instruction for me to create root user in cygwin ? regards mike _________________________________________________________________ No masks required!
