Hi again,
I didn't know you could have symlinks on a PC.
The file was hidden as in: my folder options were set to hide all system
files, so I couldn't see the file and neither could the finder. My program
(which should have read the file either way) is still not finding
cygwin1.dll, but at least now I know that it is a problem with the .exe
file, and not your installation kit.
Thanks.
Kirran

Hidden? What do you mean hidden? Do you have symlinks for /bin or
/usr/bin? If you do have symlinks these are known not to work with
setup.exe which is by the way a non-Cygwin executable so it 1) doesn't
understand symlinks and 2) doesn't know about the Cygwin registry wrt
actually using it to find files are concerned.
Earnie.
