That's the problem. You should only ever have a single version of cygwin1.dll installed anywhere on your system. Delete the old copy, and just put the new one on the path. > > is there a way I can set up an environment variable using mount or PATH > setting > that will make cygwin grep.exe to search > c:\mycygwin first before searching x:\cygwin\bin? Yes, you can adjust the PATH environment variable from the control panel, but the bigger question you should be asking yourself is why not just have a single installation of cygwin (your choice of c:\mycygwin or x:\cygwin\bin) and not have to worry about which of the multiple copies will be used. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
