Yes, using setup.exe should make it as easy as possible, you find perl in the category 'Interpreter' or the full listing (and setup.exe is here: http://cygwin.com/setup.exe ). >>Why there was an ActiveState directory created is dubios. >>What is in your /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/CPAN/Config.pm (there are the >>user defined settings)? > $CPAN::Config = { > 'build_cache' => q[10], > 'build_dir' => q[/.cpan/build], [...] Looks ok.

This is called a mount. x:\cygwin\bin is mounted to /usr/bin and to /bin so you can access the files with both paths. See also the output of the command `mount`.
