Cygwin GNU App driving Clearcase NT

[Romaszkiewicz, Tom]

Hi all,

I have just begun to use cygwin on Windows NT4, with the aim of using GNU
Toolchain apps.
I'm having a problem with GNU PATCH (2.5.4) compiled under cygwin,
interacting with Clearcase NT (4.2)

PATCH correctly senses a file to be patched is under Clearcase control, and
generates the correct Cleartool checkout command line syntax accordingly
(cleartool co -unr -nc <filename> ), but this operation always seems to
fail.

Assuming originally PATCH was at fault, I built for Win32, and the Cleartool
checkout command worked successfully.

My current thinking is my problem is about a UNIX app driving the DOS
Command line, and Cygwin needs to be configured somehow? Can someone suggest
anything I can try?

Tom
