Just re-loaded Win XP and installed my dev tools -- including Fabric.

When trying to run 'fab' from the MS-DOS command prompt, I get

'fab' is not recognized as an internal or external command.

from python I can see Fabric, because' import fabric' is working OK (?)

I believe it might be related to sys path but even after google searching / tweaking of path, I am still unable to solve.

Any pointers will be usefull.

The default path for the executables created by setup.py to go in is C:\Python25\Scripts , for Python 2.5 on Windows.  You should be able to navigate into there and see (and run) the script, and if that works, add it to your PATH.
