If I have a file called Makefile in the cwd and do
$ make
make finds it just fine...and you don't have to do any special 
configuration for it to work either. You need to read the problem report 
  guidelines on cygwin.com and rewrite your question according to what 
it says. Simply not enough information to help you as it is now.
