According to the strace, bash opens the port twice, using O_CREAT|O_TRUNC when redirecting output, and Windows apparently doesn't allow opening a serial port for writing in that mode after opening it for reading (and vice versa). > any work around ? Well, bash does offer an input/output redirection with the '<>' operator... Did you try that? Also, duplicating the file descriptor might work (e.g., </dev/ttyS0 >&0). > CYGWIN_NT-5.0 foo 1.5.20(0.155/4/2) 2006-03-19 16:11 i686 Cygwin HTH, Igor -- http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/ |\ _,,,---,,_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] | [EMAIL PROTECTED] ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ Igor Peshansky, Ph.D. (name changed!) |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' old name: Igor Pechtchanski '---''(_/--' `-'\_) fL a.k.a JaguaR-R-R-r-r-r-.-.-.
