Correct. The native rxvt was heavily patched, and there was nobody interested in porting it to 64-bit or generally supporting it. Therefore, it was replaced with the ordinary X-based rxvt. The default terminal emulator, mintty, fills that role and then some, and is what you should be using instead if you don't want X11.
whoops sorry thought I replied to the list. Thanks for the update, glad I was not going crazy seeing what I was seeing. I managed to get things working just by copying the entire cygwin directory structure from a win2008 system to the R2 system, I was expecting stuff to not work because of library registration, but the basics seem to work(really all I need is stuff like rxvt, ssh client, vim, less and tail). nate -- 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
