This would be super-cool if true, but it doesn't work for me. . . If I try, I find C:\Windows\system32\ntmarta.dll C:\Windows\SysWOW64\sechost.dll C:\Windows\syswow64\WLDAP32.dll in /proc/[ls procid]/maps but not in cygcheck output, but none of those are BLODA, right? [Note also that maps shows many things in syswow64 which cygcheck shows in system32, but presumably that's because cygcheck itself is a 32-bit app, is it?] ht -- Henry S.
