Thanks Bill, 

I found a local benefactor as well.  It turns out I installed cygwin on
the "local version" of my machine.  When it was hooked up to the
network, my network self somehow lost permission to see my cygwin
folder.

Cheers, 
Steve

PS, thanks for the spam advice.

Here's mine ...

C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -sr -sl 2500 -fg lightblue -geometry 90x60 -bg
midnightblue -sb -tn rxvt -fn "Lucida Console-12" -e /usr/bin/bash
--login -i


BTW, unless you enjoy spam, it's not a good idea to put your e-mail in
the message.
