- The environment variable CYGWIN must be either set in the system
environment to be active from start on or you can set CYGWIN thru
the registry:
Under the key HKLM\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\Program Options
create a REG_SZ (String) named like the full DOS path to the
application,
eg. "C:\usr\bin\inetd.exe" and with the value equal to the preferred
CYGWIN settings, eg "binmode tty ntsec".
Also be aware that chmod may sporadically not work and
then work. Just for no reason, and it isn't repeatable.
HTH,
Peter
