This is completely the wrong newsgroup for Cygwin problems. Try sending a mail to one of the Cygwin mailing lists. If you are using the DJGPP port of Fileutils, could you try to reproduce this problem and send me details (Fileutils version, DOS version, with or without long filenames). AFAICR mkdir works just fine (and passes the test suite). Regards, -- Richard Dawe [ http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/ ]
