I just did a complete re-install of the latest version of cygwin (1.5.14-1), and come across the following problem: when prepping a source for compilation, invoking: ./configure would stop at seemingly random places. However, running: bash ./configure worked much better. It still didn't

NFS mounts and chmod directory

So, is the following terminal trace just due to the braindead NFS implementation of Win2000 SP4, or is there a bug in cygwin chmod(2) in regards to directory permissions? I have /cygdrive/u viewing my home drive on a unix box NFS server named perth. $ cd /cygdrive/u $ alias ll='ls -lF' $

Thanks for the input so far. Task Manager shows memory usage slowly creeping up as the makefile below is run. I've verified this on two XP laptops and one w2k desktop. The memory never comes back, and it doesn't take long to max out a 512Mb/768Mb machine. Might take a bit longer if you've

BASH_VERSION vs cygcheck

Should the version info provided by echo $BASH_VERSION match the bash version displayed by cygcheck -cd? If not, is there some way to verify that the bash I'm really running is the version displayed by cygcheck? Or, does cygcheck gets its version info from within the executable? -- Ken Shaffer
