If you're happy with building the cygwin dll (and associated utilities) from source, you could have a go with http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2007-q3/msg00011.html Otherwise give it a couple of days to be approved and applied and a new snapshot generated, and you should be able to extract just the new mkgroup.exe from the snapshot tarball and use it with your current installation. 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/
