RE: imake on vista with admin rights


Try it from a cygwin shell.

Subject: imake on vista with admin rights


I installed cygwin 1.5.24-2 last week on vista (ultimate). UAC is disabled
and I'm a user in the admin group (hence an admin). When I try to run imake
in an administrator dos shell I get the following:

C:\>imake
imake: Permission denied
imake: Cannot create temporary file Makefile.
  Stop.

Any ideas on why permission is denied still? Could there be an installation
problem? make,ls etc. run fine in the dos shell.

Thanks,

JC
