The above would indicate that you don't actually have cygwin installed

this doesn't really help.


It was from the cygwin-free W98 machine. Here is the output from the PC with
cygwin installed (but remember that I had to do this from a Windows command
line box, not from the cygwin shell where it won't work):

Warning: There are multiple cygwin1.dlls on your path
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yikes!


PS: Trying this with the cygwin shell, the error dialog box appears after:


      Cygwin Configuration Diagnostics
      Current System Time: Wed Jan 04 00:17:17 2006

Windows 98 SE Ver 4.10 Build 2222

      Path:	C:\Anwendungen\cygwin\usr\local\bin
      	        C:\Anwendungen\cygwin\bin
      	        C:\Anwendungen\cygwin\bin


See the warning above.  You'll be in much better shape if you get rid of
the copied DLL from the system directory.  No, I don't expect this to
fix all your problems but it will prevent new ones in the future.
