You where sort of right. Some time ago I installed the
	Altiris Software Virtualization
tool. "ls" works in all directories that are not used by Altiris. All
directories that have an SVS layer don't work.

After some research I found this forum entry:
http://forums.altiris.com/messageview.aspx?catid=28&threadid=34551&enterthread=y
which pointed me to
http://juice.altiris.com/node/102

My ProgramIgnoreList entry now looks like this:
[_B_]PROGRAMFILES[_E_]\NAVNT\rtvscan.exe
[_B_]PROGRAMFILES[_E_]\Symantec_Client_Security\Symantec
Antivirus\rtvscan.exe
[_B_]PROGRAMFILES[_E_]\Symantec Antivirus\rtvscan.exe
C:\cygwin\cygwin.bat
C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe
C:\cygwin\bin\rsync.exe

But (similar to the forum entry) it does not work...

Does this information maybe help you to debug the problem so we can make
all cygwin tools work without adding them to the ProgramIgnoreList?

Best regards,

Mike
