Yup. If your looking for a file or program, the best place to check first is <http://cygwin.com/packages/>. A search for 'ln.exe' will reveal the fileutils package, and `cygcheck -c fileutils' will reveal whether or not the package is installed. Either way, installed or not, you may need to re-run your postinstall scripts in /etc/postinstall $ for i in /etc/postinstall/*.sh.done; do $i; done to create an required symbolic links etc. Elfyn -- Elfyn McBratney (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) Systems Administrator ABCtales.com / Ubertales.co.uk -- 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/
