Hi, I was wondering if someone could provide the syntax for calling a cygwin shell script from the Windows 2000 cmd prompt. I'm trying to do something like this:
d:\>start c:\cygwin\bin\bash -c "./script1.sh" But it doesn't seem to be working quite right, some pipes and such don't work and I can't execute a command in the script like > file.`date +%Y%m%d`. What I'm trying to do is write a cygwin script to execute some mixed NT commands and unix commands to check some network stuff, move around some files etc. The reason I want to do it this way is to use windows task scheduler to automate the task on a nightly bases. Any help would be appreciated.
