...which says... "Warning: There are multiple cygwin1.dlls on your path" ...and lists.... 602k 2005/06/26 C:\WINDOWS\system32\cygwin1.dll - os=4.0 img=1.0 sys=4.0 "cygwin1.dll" v0.0 ts=2005/5/25 19:38 1831k 2006/07/01 C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll - os=4.0 img=1.0 sys=4.0 "cygwin1.dll" v0.0 ts=2006/7/1 2:22 You must need more coffee! As to it failing when it tries to delete it, that must be because something is keeping it in use; either try shutting all your other apps down, or maybe use something like sysinternals' process explorer and search for which app has a handle to cygwin1.dll. 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/
