# ls -lL /usr/bin/perl.exe ls: /usr/bin/perl.exe: No such file or directory
Some other possibly useful stuff:
# ls -lL /usr/bin/perl -rwxr-x---+ 1 isaacf Users 11776 Aug 30 13:52 /usr/bin/perl
# ls -l /usr/bin/perl
lrwxrwxrwx 1 isaacf Domain U 22 Sep 7 17:14 /usr/bin/perl -> /usr/bin/perl5.8.5.exe
# perl -v This is perl, v5.8.5 built for cygwin-thread-multi-64int ...
# uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 xcoisaacf20 1.5.11(0.116/4/2) 2004-09-04 23:17 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin
Thanks, IF

Yes, the perl soft link works from the command line. Here's my test case that fails.

You may also need to "rm /usr/bin/perl.exe" before you can "ln -s /usr/bin/perl5.8.5.exe /usr/bin/perl".
What does
ls -lL /usr/bin/perl.exe
show?
