Fw: patch command giving permission denied

I am getting the following on executing the patch command :-

bash: /usr/bin/patch: Permission Denied

It works on my other Vista machine okay (That is an Enterprise one rather than a Home version)

Anyone got any ideas why and how to fix it

It works fine on my other Vista Home machine.


It works okay if I run cygwin bash as an administrator.

Why is this machine behaving differently and how do I fix it ?

I tried reloading Cygwin from scratch, but that did not help.
