Re: MySQL for Cygwin?

2003-02-08 Thread Rui Carmo
I have sucessfully compiled mySQL (server and client utils) from the sourceforge.net tarball without significant problems. However, since I only actually use the CLI client, I cannot comment on whether the server is suitable for general use. The CLI client works beautifully, though (via TCP/IP

Erm... Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't an NFS client have to manipulate mount points as well? I can see that working for Cygwin binaries (since everything related to the filesystem namespace goes through Cygwin), but it wouldn't work for Win32 binaries, since it's not a full network

Erm... I can't help with the blue screens, but if you can mount the filesystems you want to sync, there is an alternative called ssync (Google or Freshmeat for it) that runs OK in cygwin (I recall patching a utime() check or something similar, but it's a fairly straightforward matter). Best

Hi there, just add the line: rxvt*scrollstyle: next to your ~/.Xresources file. (You might want to run rxvt --help or check the man page for other valid resources you can set this way, since it is far preferable to adding command-line switches to rxvt) Works perfectly in Win32 (so much so
