That means it can't execute the shell, did you change permissions? remember when you said you made /bin/bash 0700 (which doesn't allow execution by any other user different from the one that installed Cygwin)? -- 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/
