Well, as I indicated before, the output is not that helpful: ---------------------------------- D:\>cd \bin\cygwin\bin
D:\bin\cygwin\bin>cygcheck -r -s -v D:\bin\cygwin\bin> ---------------------------------- I also looked at the path - nothing too suspicious, and more, I removed the PATH var altogether - nothing still (a functional "cygcheck -r -s -v" will still print stuff and complain in such an environment) I also asked an administrator to log in an try to run something - same story [this was because I was suspicious that they tweaked some access priviledges] All in all, I don't think it's worth pursuiing this whole thing much further - this is some strange beta XP and it's probably going to change again soon.
