Also Could you do the following and report back: - open windows explorer and navigate to C:\Cygwin\bin (or where ever the root of your 32 bit Cygwin installation). - scroll down to find sh.exe and check whether you see the windows 'Administrator' shield on it? If it has a shield on it, that is the source of all problems. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
