problems with cygwin after setup

[günter strubinsky]

I guess (and it's a WILD guess) it could be the same problem I experience
sometimes when installing new components. For unknown reasons the file
attributes (authority/permission) are set to 000 (under win2k adv svr)!

check first the permissions with 
	ls -o <file-that-screwed-up>

If you see something fishy:
Try something (as root naturally) like 
	chmod -R 2555 /bin/*  (read and execute access 'for the whole
world')

I hope that helps...it's worth a try.

Subject: problems with cygwin after setup

After I installed more program under cygwin I have the following problems

1.) can't get manual pages man man says no entry
2.) w3m crashes with "Can't find termcap entry cygwin"
3.) after starting cygwin I get 
/usr/share/texmf/ls-R: Permission denied
/usr/share/texmf/aliases: Permission denied
   even if I don't use a .bashrc

Any help? Why does system corrupt my cygwin installation.

Franz
