I assume it could be specific to your NT env. I am also using NT 4.0 with SP4 on 2 machines. Both has Cygwin B20.1 installed. I never had *out of env* problems on my NT 4 with SP 4. Though, as a thumb rule, I always use a pagefile on all the disks and my pagefiles on NT are always twice the size of my physical RAM. According to my experience, and also some documents at microsoft web pages, it improves the performance of NT. Regards Suhaib ----- Original Message ----- From: Todd Goodman To: 'Suhaib M.
