Sorry Pierre, I replied to your personal address only, but it was bouncing back. uname -r says 1.5.5(0.94/3/2) when I have cygwin installed and update via setup, what I definitely did, why do I have an older version than expected? I thought it must be the latest version that I have. Stefan Pi

Thank you all for your help! the 'global object privilege' was the reason for cygwin not running on the Win2003 Server. As a matter of fact. The original question started in another thread first and moved to this one due to two seperate problems. Do they have the "create global object" privilege?
