There are no permissions which can be denied? I'm not a specialist on Windowz nor on Cigwin but aren't some libraries different? I suspect that perl-interpreter/modules built on NT/W2K doesn't always work correctly on W98. If this is true do I need to re-build perl? I did this years ago under B20(?), it was pain but I was able to install LWP afterwards. Finally (may be) not related to LWP installation problem but is this supposed to work this way? bash-2.05a$ export PS1='\w$ ' ~$ whoami arkadig ~$ pwd /cygdrive/c ~$ cd ~$ pwd /cygdrive/c ~$ cd ~arkadig /home/arkadig$ pwd /home/arkadig /home/arkadig$ Thx, Arkadi -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
