Thanks for the warm welcome and introductions.. Ive just been using Cygwin for a week or so. Took me about three weeks and the added patience of a saint in respect of help from an IT guy who does our web site stuff for us. In itself it proves to be pretty stable but the NT machine it is running on is in the process of a nervous breakdown.
We run a Pervasive database tool on that machine as well as standard FTP server ..

Ahhh! It's not just our NT server that's having a nervous breakdown then! (Well, ours is having a little more of a strop than it really should be... it *CAN'T* see the outside world *except* through a local proxy, but there's no reason that it shouldn't be able to that we can see... It randomly decides to put all web sites in the stop state when ever it feels like it, *and* it won't install a critical update :/)
Very very glad that my side of work is mostly on our nux boxen, much *much* easier to cope with :)
Cheers,
