Tom, Max,
I have seen the "Permission Denied" message before. I ussually get this error
message after I have done some upgrading Cygwin packages or installling new
parts, etc. The best answer I have (and the one I use) is to reinstall Cygwin.
I have always install by first downloading the packages to loacl drive and the
installing from local drive. I do this because I will try out different
configure and installs. I have come across issues when I have gotten packages
from different download sites because I sometimes have issues with different
sites. I also have dial-up which is why I prefer to download and install
locally. So I suggest you rerun the cygwin installer and choose reinstall for
each package you have.
Good Luck!
Ed
