Unix/posix/linux shells don't usually include the current directory in the path automatically, so being in /usr/bin doesn't make any difference; it only depends whether /usr/bin or . is in your $PATH setting. However, while you are in /usr/bin, you can always execute commands by supplying the path of the current directory as path of the command, e.g. ./who ./uname -a etc, etc. > Will plz guide me to come out of this problem. > Rgds, > vikram narayan Jp Follow the instructions here: > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html In particular this bit: " Run cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out and include that file as an attachment in your report. Please do not compress the output. Just attach it as a straight text file so that it can be easily viewed. " In your case, since something's wrong, you may need to be in /usr/bin and type ./cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
