Hello! I'm not sure if this question has been asked before, but if it has, please let me know where I may find the answer. The problem I have is, when pkunzip (in my case, pkunzip 2.50) is ran with the '-d' switch (to automatically create the original directory structure of the archive) it fails. pkunzip output ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PKUNZIP (R) FAST!

Anyway, I'm running DOSEMU 1.3.5. I've tried both MS-DOS 6.22 and FreeDOS 1.0 and the problem exists in both. Is there some kind of umask setting that will control this behavior, or is it an internal DOSEMU problem?
