Title: RE: Cygwin Perl system() Invokes exec() Directly?

Hello,

>What about permissions?

It turns out your suspicions about configuration were correct: I'm trying to keep a minimal installation here and it turns out that none of the packages I've installed contain the Bourne shell. I've worked around the problem via "ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh"...

Thanks for the help...

- Matt
