If it works perfectly from the cygwin terminal then why not use a shell script and execute that via the task scheduler? Once you have the commands in your shell script you can just use C:\Cygwin\bin\bash.exe -c /path/to/script.sh instead of C:\blah\path\batch.bat 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/
