First, you need to type mkdir -p /tmp to ensure that a temp directory exists for programs that expect to find one there. First off what directory do I create it in? I have a TEMP directory stated in my autoexec.bat file but I'm assuming this wants a different one. I tried creating it next to the /bin directory and also in the same directory as the one that the cygnus.bat file operates out of. both times I got a bash cannot find /tmp please create the mkdir -p /tmp gives me an "invalid switch error" so does mkdir -p \tmp Thank you for your patiences Shalor - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
