Re: Shared memory problem

["CRAIG SORENSEN" <sorbercra at msn dot com>]

I have attached the cygcheck file and a short program that I have copied 
from a tutorial online. I am compiling it as shown here:

gcc shm_write.c -o shm_write

There are no errors or warnings when I compile, but whenI go to run, it says 
"Bad system call".

Thanks for the help.
