Thanks Larry, I have found something which may be able to pinpoint the source of the error: However, I'm not competent enough to judge what's wrong! Perhaps, you or someone in the group will be able to help me out... On the system on which expect's spawn works AS EXPECTED, 'cygcheck -s -r -v' reports the PATH as UNIX paths, as follows:... Path: /cygdrive/c/Program Files/ibm/gsk4/lib /cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32 /cygdrive/c/WINNT /cygdrive/c/WINNT/System32/Wbem /usr/bin /cygdrive/c/JDK1.3.1_01 . . . However, on the system where it DOESN'T Work as expected, the PATH is reported as "windows paths, i.e. drive names followed by windows path, as follows: Path: C:\WINNT\system32 C:\cygwin\bin C:\WINNT . . . Will this be useful ?
