You didn't read very far. The next message in the thread, http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2005-10/msg00652.html makes it quite obvious that you are not running the cygwin version of bash. For us to help you further, please follow the instructions, and attach a text file output of 'cygcheck -svr': > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html That will tell you (and us) what other version of bash you are running instead of cygwin's bash. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
