That is it. My $HOME is set to '/'. If I change it to something else things work as expected.
This opens up two questions, 1. Why is $HOME set to '/'? According to /etc/profile it should be set to /home/RDW. id -un returns RDW. Not sure why this is not setup correctly. 2. This was working fine before updating my cygwin setup. My $HOME was set to '/' before and everything was fine. I've hardcoded some things to get around this problem. Not sure why this happened. I havn't changed anything or have an unusual setup. Thanks for all your help, ron __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
