However, when I attempt to cd into /usr/rjf/pub, I get: bash.exe: pub: Not owner while doing cd /pub works fine. I haven't really worked with links much, so perhaps I am missing someting? rjf - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
