If you don't want to assume that /etc is a parallel directory to /bin, where you've loaded cygwin1.dll from, you can also provide this configuration file directly at the location of the cygwin1.dll. This would also enable a mounted /etc. - Jörg -- 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/
