[sleuthkit-users] Using autopsy/sleuthkit under cygwin

[Keith R W. <kw...@be...>]

I am running on a windows 2000 workstation with cygwin installed. When I 
try to add an image to a case file it tells me that it can't find:
cygwin1.dll on the path, even though the path has /bin on it. The error 
is coming from fsstat.

When I try to run fsstat from the command line I get the following:
$ /cygdrive/d/sleuthkit/bin/fsstat.exe /cygdrive/a
/cygdrive/d/sleuthkit/bin/fsstat: /cygdrive/a: read superblock: Is a 
directory

The mounted disks look like:
$ df
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
C:\cygwin\bin          5218904   4401768    817136  85% /usr/bin

j:                     2096320   1619584    476736  78% /cygdrive/j

The only thing I have done on disk a is wipe it "forensically clean", 
created three small text files, and deleted two of them.
I don't know if this is related to cygwin or I am just doing something 
wrong. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
