Peter,
It did the trick. My basedir was set to "E:\" (call it legacy from WinNt). I've
set it to "/", and the "ls" exec worked, and not the least the javadoc command
I'm after.
Thanks a lot.
Christian Noel
PS: If you have time, I'm currious, what's this issue you seem to mentionned in
your email, i.e. 'unless this has been fixed yet'?
