First, upgrade to Cygwin DLL 1.3.13-2. Second, read the recent email list messages related to "ntsec" and it being the new default.
Third, check out the user guide if you don't understand what "ntsec" does for you. I can't speak to your issue regarding chmod, since I don't see any problems here and I don't know what you did or even if you're using a Cygwin version of chmod.

After that, I suddenly find that when I compile file with gcc, it generates the bin but I cannot run it. The reason is that the file generated by gcc is -rw-rw-rw-, and I even cannot "chmod" it(output is "chmod: changing permissions of `a.exe': Invalid argument"). Everything is all right before the updates. And I didn't select gcc or any other thing during update. The update is by default. btw, BCC32.exe(borland cpp compiler) works well. I don't know why, so I'm writing this mail asking for help. thanks, -bryan I run cygwin as administrator on: Windows 2000 Professional. -- 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/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . -- 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/
