They aren't connected permanently to an office network. They can connect to WiFi every so often when they get near to a WiFi location. Ok, so why is automating this DLL rebasing procedure impossible? I don't care if it is a Cygwin process or a Windows process that does this. Something needs to check to see if the DLL rebasing needs done and then do it if that is the source of the problem. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
