^^^^^^^^^^ Should be -e /bin/autoans.sh (should have a space after no?). Take a look at the man page (`man 8 agetty') and the documentation /usr/doc/agetty-2.1/Users_Guide /usr/doc/Cygwin/agetty.README Which should help you :-) Regards, Elfyn McBratney [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.exposure.org.uk -- 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/
