Hello,
I am using Cygwin under W2K (inserted into an NT domain) and I face the
following problem:
I use the dd command to transfer a disk image to a Compact Flash card
inserted into a PCMCIA adapter.
I use the procedure described by Corinna Vinschen in her answer to "dd

i recently reinstalled cygwin.
now i find that the ls command
does not work in some directories.

Sounds like it might be due to the fact that ntsec is now on by default.

Without a `cygcheck -s -v -r` output attached (as per

wild guesses, so here's one: it looks like you might have a misguided

I see one thing wrong. The cout functions name comes from
the standard namespace, so you either have to add:
using namespace std;
or qualify the name, i.e.
std::cout

It wasn't a particularly well thought through question, but what you say
above isn't strictly true.
"/bin/awk: not found" is fairly clear cut.

rxvt was WELL worth the price of admission for two reasons (for me)
(1) Having a window that I can resize just about any bloody way I want,
not limited by what Windows wants to give me, with a nice, flexible
scrollbar.
(2) Being easily able to set things up where I could use the left, middle

Hey I was just letting him know how I did it. Never said it was the correct
way to do it, because I never knew about the shared memory thing. Ok then I
have a question, if you can't use -mno-cygwin to compile you just need to
make sure the path is set correctly and it will work?
