I have a web application which runs as SYSTEM user in windows.
It executes the following command using Java Runtime.exec api's
C:/cygwin/bin/sh.exe -c C:/cygwin/bin/mkdir.exe -p 'C:/cygwin/tmpdir'

The command executes fine but I get the following warning.

cygwin warning:
  MS-DOS style path detected: C:/cygwin
  Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /
  CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
  Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:
    http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames

To suppress this warning I set the environment variable CYGWIN=nodosfilewarning by MyComputer-->Advanced-->EnvironmentVariables, but still I am getting this warning. 

Is there any other way to set the CYGWIN environment variable.


thanks,
Prakash
