Oops indeed. Since the messages weren't in the same thread, I fired off the previous reply before seeing this. Turns out I was wrong in my guess. Is /etc readable to the SYSTEM user? Is /etc/services (or, rather, the file it's pointing to) readable? In fact, is / readable (the new versions of Cygwin have traverse checking turned on, so if a directory isn't readable or executable, none of the entries underneath it can be accessed). Igor P.S. FYI, you didn't attach your cygcheck output, but included it inline. -- http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/ |\ _,,,---,,_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' Igor Pechtchanski, Ph.D. '---''(_/--' `-'\_) fL a.k.a JaguaR-R-R-r-r-r-.-.-.
