That's unfortunate, but please don't reply to me directly. If you do not want to use the public mailing list that is your choice, but that is not an invitation to email me directly for private help. This is your problem, most likely: Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\awk.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\cat.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\cp.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\find.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\grep.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\ls.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\mv.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\rm.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\sed.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\sh.exe Found: c:\mks6.1\mksnt\tar.exe Whatever you have installed in "c:\mks6.1" is providing incompatible versions of many tools. Also, you have some other/older cygwin DLL on your system, because the registry keys: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions\CYGWIN.DLL setup\b15.0 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\CYGWIN.DLL setup\b15.0 ...are not used by any current version of Cygwin, nor have they for probably 7 years or so.
