In order to test this I shut down all cygwin processes, renamed the offending cygwinb19.dll to cygwinb19.dll~, and started bash again. No joy; all my symlinks still have the .lnk suffix. Updated cygcheck attached in case anybody has any other ideas? Thanks for pointing the spurious dll out though. My MySQL is a release or two out of date, but if upgrading doesn't get rid of the dodgy dll, then is there any reason why I can't just copy the latest cygwin1.dll over the one in the MySQL directory? Rather than dicking around with a hex editor or compiling MySQL for myself. > BTW, cygwin.bat does not set the CYGWIN environment by default. All > defaults are internally set.

Cool. So there aren't any other things that need ot be set *before* cygwin starts that can't be set in e.g. /etc/profile? Just checkin'... Cheers for the help, Andrew.
