It was working fine before I turned it off, and it didn't work when I rebooted in the morning. And the only thing that didn't work was the mount points; "ls" (and almost everything else) would fail, which I abbreviated to "cygwin didn't work". Two simple mount commands fixed that. Based upon the symptoms, I doubt that cygwin1.dll problems are to blame, unless there's something in all of the start-up stuff that uses a rogue copy.
To be complete, I'll go around and delete all of the copies. If the problem recurs in a week or a month, I'll come back here! If it doesn't, thanks for your help. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/-bin-and--lib-mount-points-occasionally-lost-tp34007108p34009433.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
