I did a search of the system, no other sh-s to be found.

How about other versions of bash?



Searched, no others to be found.


Have you tried:

c:\>
c:\>d:\cygwin\bin\sh
$ /bin/cat /etc/passwd


I have now: C:\>d:\cygwin\bin\sh $ /bin/cat /etc/passwd /bin/cat: not found $

Looks to be the same as within cygwin.

Try the above with d:\cygwin\bin\bash .



OK: C:\>d:\cygwin\bin\bash bash-2.05b$ /bin/cat /etc/passwd SYSTEM:*:18:544:,S-1-5-18:: Administrators:*:544:544:,S-1-5-32-544:: . . . duane:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:11054:10513:duane,U-LUNARCORP\duane,S-1-5-21- 25853599 -59532045-941767090-1054:/cygdrive/c/C:/DOCUME~1/duane:/bin/bash

One thing that can only help is fixing your home directory to point to
something reasonable.
