Well, the "Package List Search" on cygwin.com says that rman is included in (amongst others) xorg-x11-man-pages which Setup has a "keep" next to meaning they're installed presumably? However /usr/X11R6/bin contains only a file called "run.exe". So where is rman? > Secondly, this question is not specific to cygwin.
