Hi Chris -
I always put "." in the front of my path so that as I'm developing an
app, I always pick up the devel version in my current working directory
instead of /usr/local/bin. I know it's not the most secure thing in the
world, but I'm on a stand-alone, single-user system, so the security
risks are manageable.
Fair enough. Just seemed odd (I didn't think for a moment it could cause
the problem.. Just out of place).
Just to try something, I modified my path to only include "/usr/bin" -
no difference:
tka-16:/cygdrive/p> set path = "/usr/bin"
tka-16:/cygdrive/p> which find
/usr/bin/find
tka-16:/cygdrive/p> find /cygdrive/c -iname win.ini
find: .: No such file or directory
find: /cygdrive/c/.backupSettings: No such file or directory

Per Eric's suggestion from last week, I did change my mount types to -b:
tka-16:/cygdrive/p> mount -m
mount -f -s -b "D:/CygWIN/bin" "/usr/bin"
mount -f -s -b "D:/CygWIN/lib" "/usr/lib"
mount -f -s -b "D:/CygWIN" "/"
mount -s -b --change-cygdrive-prefix "/cygdrive"
Could you paste the current output of mount ?
Very strange...
Indeed.
As I recall, you said you'd tried reinstalling cygwin..
Was this from the same source?
Actually.. Hrm..
*ponders*
I wonder if it's a permissions thing..
What user class do you run cygwin as, and what are your user/group
permissions on C:, D: etc?
