C'mon now, be serious. I've been using Cygwin for at least 5 years, I think I can follow some instructions when setup tells me I'll need to. I think I ended up rebooting 12 times, or at least that what it seemed like. Maybe I didn't explicitly say that I did reboot the system, but that's not a reason to merely assume that I didn't. In any case, it made no difference. There were half a dozen files ending in .new in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin, so *something* wasn't running that was supposed to move them after a reboot. --jc Eagles may soar, but weasels=A0don't get sucked into jet engines.
