That was the point of testing with a complete re-install... which had the same result. > For ways to open a SYSTEM-owned shell, see the email archives. Hint: A Windows shortcut with the following properties C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -c "at $(date +%H):$(($(date +%M) + 1)) /interactive 'c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe' --login -i; secs=$((60 - $(date +%S))); while [ $secs -ne 0 ]; do echo -ne 'Please wait '$secs' seconds for the shell \r'; sleep 1; secs=$(($secs - 1)); done" and don't forget to return /var/empty to its original state before doing any more testing. -- René Berber -- 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/
