He never heard of cygwin as of 2 days ago and he used the same mirror (snuet.se) where I usually update (and indeed it contains 1.3.6-6)... I doubt he has a older version of the DLL. But maybe the is some program that installed an older version without him ever knowing it was used, I'll tell him to search his hard-disk for cygwin1.dll's Thanks, Lapo -- Lapo 'Raist' Luchini [EMAIL PROTECTED] (PGP & X.509 keys available) http://www.lapo.it (ICQ UIN: 529796) -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
