I am using cygwin 1.7.2-2 and chmod fails for MS-DOS style path with the following error message.
eg: chmod 755 C:\\FileName cygwin warning: MS-DOS style path detected: C:\FileName Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/FileName CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning. Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths: http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames This used to work in cygwin 1.5 . Is there any workaround available for this currently ? Is this a bug in 1.7 which will be fixed in the upcoming versions ? thanks, Prakash -- 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
