Sort your passwd and group files out! > I don't understand you. What is wrong in my group and > passwd files ? You aren't really a member of a group called "mkgroup-l-d"! This name is a hint to you from cygwin that there is no entry in the groups file for (at least one of) the groups you are a member of and you need to run mkgroup to update it. For more information about mkgroup and mkpasswd, see http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mkpasswd http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mkgroup You appear to be in a domain, so you probably want to use both "-l" and "-d" options for both of them. I can't say for certain whether it will help or not, but having your passwd/groups files incomplete can cause problems with permissions which might be responsible for blocking your access to certain files. Out of curiousity, what output do you see from the commands ls -la /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/etc/ ls -la /etc/{hosts,protocols,services,networks} wc -l /etc/{hosts,protocols,services,networks} 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/
