Untested code: #include <unistd.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <errno.h> int main(int argc, char**argv) { int e = chdir(argv[1]); char *cwd = getcwd(NULL,0); return printf ("chdir to %s: %d(%s), now in %s\n", argv[1], e, strerror(e), cwd); } That alone will give insights into whether you should even be expecting this to work. The difference between bash and dash is that bash spends more time calling cygwin conversion routines in advance of attempting chdir. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
