Question about programs using paths with wildcards


I have a basic Cygwin installation + rtorrent including dependencies.
Downloading (manually) with rtorrent works fine but when I set the
path of the watch folder it does not seem to process it.
However, it does work when my path does not contain the '*' wildcard.

E.g. /home/user/watch/*.torrent is not processed i.e. the load command
in the config file does not load it--with no errors thrown.
But /home/user/watch/mytorrent.torrent is loaded into rtorrent normally.
Could not find anything in the FAQ to explain this behavior.

I installed rtorrent + dependencies from the cygwin installer wizard
on windows 7.
The same setup works on an ubuntu system. So I suspect Cygwin is
missing functionality rtorrent relies on. Any ideas on how to solve?

Regards,

Jurgen
