If you want changes to be persistent, look into either the "Setx" tool or "Pathman" tool, both from the Windows resource kit. http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/pathman-o.asp http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/setx-o.asp But, I wouldn't bother going to all that trouble. Cygwin sets its path in /etc/profile -- as long as /bin (aka /usr/bin) is ahead of $PATH (which is Windows' path), Cygwin should be happy since it will always find its version of things. You can check this with "echo $PATH" from a cygwin prompt, but /bin (and possibly /usr/sbin, /usr/local/bin, etc.) should all be at the head of the list. Why are you compiling bintools anyway? There's a package you know...
