[ITP] sunrpc-4.0-1, nfs-server-2.2.47-1

[Robb, Sam]

All,

  As nobody's made a fuss about licensing issues or
similar topics, I've posted the sunrpc and nfs-server
package files for review.  They're available at:

  http://www.oneparticularharbor.net/cygwin/

Direct links:

# sunrpc
category:   Libs
requires:   cygwin
sdesc:  Sun RPC (ONC/RPC) libraries and utilities.
ldesc:  This distribution contains Sun Microsystem's implementation of the
RPC and XDR protocols.  Also included is complete documentation,
utilities, RPC service specification files, and demonstration services
in the format used by the RPC protocol compiler (rpcgen).

http://www.oneparticularharbor.net/cygwin/sunrpc/sunrpc-4.0-1-src.tar.bz2

# nfs-server
category:   Net
requires:   cygwin sunrpc
sdesc:  Universal NFS server.
ldesc:  This package contains an NFS daemon (rpc.nfsd) and a mount daemon 
(rpc.mountd).
Unlike other NFS daemons, this NFS server runs entirely in user space. 
This makes
it a tad slower than other NFS implementations, and also introduces 
some
awkwardnesses in the semantics (for instance, moving a file to a 
different
directory will render its file handle invalid).

Re: Pending packages status

[Sergey Okhapkin]

From: Charles Wilson cwilson at ece dot gatech dot edu

 spkg doesn't seem to work properly -- the patch is VERY large.
 This is because xinetd-2.3.9-1.sh sets objdir=${srcdir}. 

You have to run clean before spkg. all target creates a correct diff 
file. objdir have to be set to srcdir because of xinetd's makefile bugs. 
I'm going to fix these bugs in the next release - I want to build xinetd 
with a just announced RPC package.

 should have an /etc/preremove script, to do the following
 (*) rm -f /etc/xinetd.d/*
 (*) rmdir /etc/xinetd.d
 (*) rm -f /etc/xinetd.conf

I can't do that:-( Preremove script is executed on package upgrade too, 
all user-created or modified settings will be lost on upgrade. 

Regarding chkconfig:
 conf) Why --disable-nls? Just to avoid the dependency on libintl?

Because chkconfig build fails otherwice:-) --with-included-gettext 
configure option fixes the problem, but I'd like to investigate first waht 
is wrong with chkconfig's configure/Makefile.

which command fails

Hi,

Since I upgraded cygwin I can't use the which command. It keeps saying:

$ which /usr/bin/ls
/usr/bin/ls: Command not found.


My path appears to be OK:

$ echo $PATH

The which also looks OK, and is the same as the which in the old cygwin I 
had:

Any ideas what could be going wrong?

Re: Failed to open input method

The Could not init font path ... error is in the FAQ:

Don't know if the Xlib locale business is a side-effect of the font

Re: Failed to open input method

[Thomas Chadwick]

You know, after sending this reply I actually went and read the FAQ I was 
pointing you to.  It looks to be quite out of date in that it refers to the 
Xinstall.sh script, which is not how XFree86 is installed any more.

What you need to do is run the Cygwin Setup program, and on the 3rd screen, 
there is a pair of radio buttons under the label Default Text File Type.  
Make sure Unix is picked, not DOS.

Re: Windows Manager

[Randall R Schulz]

Martin,

When I need to know about command-line options or environment variables 
that are not documented or for commands for which documentation is not 
available or at hand, I do something like this:

% strings /usr/X11R6/bin/XWin.exe |egrep -e -rootless
-rootless
EXPERIMENTAL: Run the server in pseudo-rootless mode.
-rootless

Here it appears both the strings from the argument processing code and the 
usage message are found. This, then, suggests that there is a help message 
available. This command:

% strings /usr/X11R6/bin/XWin.exe |egrep -e ^-

produces 123 lines, including this one:

-help  prints message with these options

(Note that this particular program does not abide by the POSIX conventions 
stipulating the use of two hyphens for multiple-character option names.)


However, you may be surprised at the result of invoking XWin -help, which 
is to say you'll see no output (nor will the X server start up). The help 
output _is_ produced, but it goes into /tmp/XWin.log (!)


I hope that helps, especially by adding to your repertoire of self-help 
techniques.

xhost configuration

[Booker]

I'm trying to configure my xhost to be secure.  Every time I start and x
server (startxwin.bat) xhost is configured wide open:

$ xhost
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
INET:host-1.fakedomain.net
INET:host-1.fakedomain.net
INET:localhost
LOCAL:

I have to always type xhost - so that I can get:
access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect

So 2 questions:

1. How can I get xhost by default configured with access control enabled
by default?

2. How can I removed a hostname in xhost that has a - in it.?  
In the above example if I do a xhost -host-1.fakedomain.net it doesn't
work.  There are no /etc/X.* files on my machines so I don't know where
to manually delete that entry.  Any suggestions?

Mahalo,
Booker

True.  I hadn't been considering the error case.

RE: env cygwin, value=tty

[linda w \(cyg\)]

Thanks!

 The documentation was incorrect.  Cygwin honors most of the 
 stty settings, even with CYGWIN=notty.

Now about those other problems.  Am I the only one that has
this problem? or does no one try using remote displays or local
combo of X and MS-Win Windows.

Followup: 1.3.17: sshd closes terminal immediately after establishingconnection (1.3.13 ? 1.3.14)

[jurgen . defurne]

Hello, everybody,

I want to followup on this problem. It is still not solved,
but I have found some time to investigate the problem, and
it surely has to do with the cygwin1.dll.

I downloaded all the archives of cygwin that I was able to
find, unfortunately the 1.3.13 was not available anymore on
my mirrors.

Then with some tweaking of the setup.ini file, I could
persuade setup.exe to install the cygwin version that I
wanted to have.

The problem remains the same. When I run sshd using cygwin
1.3.12, I am able to connect remotely, when I use any of the
 version 1.3.14, 1.3.15, 1.3.16, 1.3.17, the connection is
immediately closed after logging on. I know that upgrading
OpenSSH will not help, because when I first experienced the
problems, I had done a complete upgrade around cygwin 1.3.17.

Attachments :
- Output of the sshd -d for cygwin 1.3.12 and 1.3.14
- Output of cygcheck -c -s -v


After upgrading from cygwin 1.3.12 to 1.3.17 (also tried 1.3.16, same 
problem),
I cannot establish a remote session anymore.

When running ssh -v some-address to the server with cygwin 1.3.17  and
sshd 3.5-p1, the session is first established (I get login messages), but 
then
immediately closed. On the client side I get the following message :

debug1: permanently_set_uid: 45090/10513
setuid 45090: Permission denied

I have searched and found some answers, but they all rely on the fact that
one has Administrator rights on his WinNT/2000 box, but in our case that 
is
not possible, so I have to run the sshd as a specific user, and I also can
not install sshd as a service. This was no problem with previous version 
of
Cygwin and sshd, so I hope that somehow this possibility has not 
disappeared
from either OpenSSH or Cygwin.

Regards,

Jurgen Defurne

RE: gcc-2 problems

Yes, but for our purposes this needs to be classified as a change to our

Surely your makefiles invoke the compiler via an environment variable so

Re: Can I download everything and install from local files?

[Nathan Catlow]

And I quote from www.cygwin.com: If you are adventurous (i.e. masochistic) 
you can also download the Cygwin distribution via ftp or http using some other 
program than setup.exe.

Yes you too can be adventurous and masochistic, with a bit of work. You 
basically have to mirror the relevent ftp site/mirror into a local directory 
and run setup from there.

Choose 'install from local directory' and when setup asks you where to store 
the downloaded packages, point it at the local dir where setup.exe resides.

Here is a Linux script that just does that. I don't know whether there is a 
windows equivalant of 'copydir'. I just rerun this script to update my local 
distribution and run setup.exe - works well IMHO.

#!/bin/bash
copydir ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/sources.redhat.com/pub/cygwin/release ./ \
--exclude-regexp .*\-src.* \
--keep-files \
--verbose --verbose
copydir ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/sources.redhat.com/pub/cygwin/setup.* ./ \
--verbose --verbose


If you need to ask questions about this, forget it and use setup.exe in the 
supported way.

regards,

Nathan.

/usr/bin/ls: Command not found.


My path appears to be OK:

rxvt customization questions

[[mn]]

Hi,

I've got some questions concerning the latest Cygwin version of rxvt.

First, I played around with the .Xdefaults file a bit.
Unfortunately, I can't find out each necessary entry that will give the
scrollbar a personalized new look, some of the settings do not work for me as
expected, for instance Rxvt*troughColor (no effect at all). And there always
remains ugly blue borders.

Another point is a colorized prompt. I'm actually using one based on solid
colors like bright white, green and yellow.
I'd like to play around with colors like YellowGreen, Ivory or RedOrange -
is there any possibility of getting these values working somehow, maybe with
special add-ons?

I'd also like to show the current working directory in the title bar of a
rxvt console but haven't got a clue, so how can I achieve that?
I guess I have to play around with the 'dirs' command... could anyone
contribute a working example script here?

Best wishes,

[mn]

RSH: permission denied for NTFS network shares

[Genady Veytsman]

Hi,

I have some problem using rsh under cygwin.
It works fine for local disks and local disks of remote computers
(both UNIX and NT/2000).

But if I am trying to access NTFS network share (that is on file 
server), I receive permission denied.

Here is an example:

From unix machine:

 rsh genadyv --- (genadyv is Window2000 machine with cygwin)
Fanfare!!!
You are successfully logged in to this server!!!

genadyv@GENADYV ~
$ ls -d //mystisun8/vol1/tmp - unix machine
//mystisun8/vol1/tmp

genadyv@GENADYV ~
$ ls -d /cygdrive/c/    local disk C
/cygdrive/c

genadyv@GENADYV ~
$ ls -d /cygdrive/m/ - network share on file server
ls: /cygdrive/m: Permission denied

genadyv@GENADYV ~
$ ls /cygdrive
c  d  g  m  p  x  y



I have no problem accessing /cygdrive/m/ from bash prompt in cygwin
(locally).
/cygdrive/m is a mount to //mystifile/mixsig$

Any help is appreciated

RE: c++ ifstream problem with gcc 3.2

[Zhabitsky Oleg-QOZ001]

Hello Gerrit,

I've faced the same problem after installation gcc 3.2.
How I solved it in my program:

  ifstream cur_stream(file_name1, ios::in);
  ..
  cur_stream.close();
  cur_stream.clear();
  cur_stream.open(file_name2, ios::in);
  

Hope, it'll help you.

Best regards,
Zhabitsky Oleg

 
 Hello,
 
 I recently encountered the problem with the gcc 3.2 compiler 
 of cygwin 
 using ifstream. Basically it is the same problem as mentioned in 
 http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2002-06/msg00079.html although 
 this is about 
 gnu cc 3.0. I thought that this was already fixed. The 
 problem is that when 
 a ifstream object is closed and than reopened with the open 
 method to open 
 another file, no data is returned. But if one uses 2 ifstream 
 objects, 
 everything works perfectly. Is this a known issue with c++ on cygwin ?

Mysterious FTP failure

[Brian Kelly]

I’ve been using cygwin’s ftp.exe client program on my NT 4.0 SP 6
machine for quite a while. It’s
worked flawlessly for months. I have not made any changes to the box and
have not upgraded any
cygwin components in months. Sometime in the last 48 hours “something”
changed. Now when
I attempt to ftp a tar file, it sends about 98-99% of it or so, and then
mysteriously quits – “thinking”
it had sent the whole thing. (It does not report any transmission
errors). It’s not tar, because if I
ftp TO the box via inetd/ftpd and retrieve the file – the whole thing
transfers just fine. I’ve rebooted the
box numerous times, as well cold shutdown (to reset the network card) –
same problem. I haven’t
tried uninstalling or reinstalling any cygwin components, because I’d
really like to understand what’s
CAUSING the problem. I’m writing automation software that has advanced
error checking and I’d
like to trap and “identify” this condition (if possible) and advise in
an error message what the possible
genesis of the condition is and what hints one can follow to remedy
and/or prevent the problem. The
automation software essentially “automates” cross-network unix
command-line environments and is
100% perl. As such, it relies on cygwin for this environment on MSWin
boxes. If one “node” fails – it
can switch boxes automatically – but being able to determine WHY a box
has a problem and reporting
it successfully is VERY important to the overall approach of the
software.
 
If anyone’s got a clue what’s happened to break ftp – or can suggest
what other things I can investigate
to get the “bottom” of this problem – I’d REALLY appreciate it.

Yes.  You have ntsec on (it's on by default starting from 1.3.13, IIRC),
and the files in your /bin have the wrong permissions.  Try

$ chmod -R a+rx /bin

and see if it solves the problem.  You might also want to update your
passwd and group files - search this list for instructions.

Lock Count Exceeded

[A. S. Budden]

Hi there,

I'm a bit of a beginner with CygWin to be honest, I use it (at the moment) almost 
exclusively to get the benefit of the better compile of Mutt than the Win32 version.

I have been using Mutt for a while and have a well established .muttrc and so on, so 
since that worked fine with my HOME set to h:/, I decided to use Mutt on Cygwin with 
HOME set to /cygdrive/h/ to get identical functionality.

However, when I load Mutt, I get an error message saying Lock Count Exceeded, remove

 Hi there,
 
 I'm a bit of a beginner with CygWin to be honest, I use it (at the moment) almost

 I have been using Mutt for a while and have a well established .muttrc and so on, so 
since that worked fine with my HOME set to h:/, I decided to use Mutt on Cygwin with 
HOME set to /cygdrive/h/ to get identical functionality.
 
 However, when I load Mutt, I get an error message saying Lock Count Exceeded,

 I've got some questions concerning the latest Cygwin version of rxvt.
 
 First, I played around with the .Xdefaults file a bit.

I, also, would welcome any discussion of how rxvt works on Cygwin. I just 
recently began using rxvt after a long period of resisting (I invested a 
great deal of time and effort into learning how make the native Windows 
console work optimally with bash).

the one thing that really pleased me was when i discovered in a marathon 
late-night Googling session, with considerable effort to interpret poorly-
written documentation, how to clear the entire rxvt console buffer and go 
back to (0,0):

  echo -ne '\033c'

thus one can alias:
  alias cls=echo -ne '\033c'

 it surely has to do with the cygwin1.dll.

Please try

Send me the trace file, as well as your passwd and

RE: Mysterious FTP failure

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I'm guessing that you're stuck debugging this one.  I don't think 
someone else is going to be able to guess what changed on your 
system to cause this problem to surface for you (though maybe I'm 
wrong).  I expect the most direct route to discover more details 
about the problem and an eventual solution would be to run a 
debug version of ftp in gdb and see what happens.   This should at
least narrow down the possibilities to a reasonable size and give 
the list some details to cogitate, assuming the results don't 
automatically point you to a solution yourself.

Good luck,

Larry

Subject: Mysterious FTP failure


I’ve been using cygwin’s ftp.exe client program on my NT 4.0 SP 6
machine for quite a while. It’s
worked flawlessly for months. I have not made any changes to the box and
have not upgraded any
cygwin components in months. Sometime in the last 48 hours “something”
changed. Now when
I attempt to ftp a tar file, it sends about 98-99% of it or so, and then
mysteriously quits – “thinking”
it had sent the whole thing. (It does not report any transmission
errors). It’s not tar, because if I
ftp TO the box via inetd/ftpd and retrieve the file – the whole thing
transfers just fine. I’ve rebooted the
box numerous times, as well cold shutdown (to reset the network card) –
same problem. I haven’t
tried uninstalling or reinstalling any cygwin components, because I’d
really like to understand what’s
CAUSING the problem. I’m writing automation software that has advanced
error checking and I’d
like to trap and “identify” this condition (if possible) and advise in
an error message what the possible
genesis of the condition is and what hints one can follow to remedy
and/or prevent the problem. The
automation software essentially “automates” cross-network unix
command-line environments and is
100% perl. As such, it relies on cygwin for this environment on MSWin
boxes. If one “node” fails – it
can switch boxes automatically – but being able to determine WHY a box
has a problem and reporting
it successfully is VERY important to the overall approach of the
software.
 
If anyone’s got a clue what’s happened to break ftp – or can suggest
what other things I can investigate
to get the “bottom” of this problem – I’d REALLY appreciate it.

Of course, this *is* a new/different version of gcc v2, so if you are

gcc-2 is going to help.

Of course, I don't really understand why are you are running setup.exe

Today I updated my cygwin install for the first time in about three

to look at gcc-2. I have to change my local install to work the way it
used to.

Is there a way to get back to where I was? I've tried uninstalling gcc-3
and then renaming /usr/bin/*-2.exe to not have the -2 but I think I'm
missing something. The build breaks in a confusing place and I'm
convinced its because of my compiler woes.

Could I use an old version of the installer to install gcc-2.95 as gcc
instead of gcc-2? If so, where would I get the old installer and how
would I make it do the right thing?

I've searched the mailing lists as best I can back throuh Oct. 15th, but
I haven't found an answer. 

Any help you could give would be, well, helpful.

try/catch and mutithreading

[Ignasi Villagrasa]

Hi everyone,

I've got a problem migrating several C++ based server applications from 
Watcom 10.5 compiler to cygwin. The problem arises when diferent threads 
get into a try/catch block concurrently. Then cygwin forces me to 
include a semaphore out of try block to solve a concurrency conflict 
that I didn't have using Watcom 10.5, or I don't have now only avoiding 
the try/catch structure.

Source code

void A()
{

MySemaphore.Request();

try
{




}
catch(...)
{


}
catch(...)
{


}

MySemaphore.Release() ;

return;
}

works properly in multithreading, but

void A()
{


try
{
MySemaphore.Request();



}
catch(...)
{


}
catch(...)
{


}

MySemaphore.Release() ;

return;
}

gives me a concurrent problem.

Obviously without semaphores I get a concurrency error also.

I use here the semaphore in order to investigate where in the code the 
problem arises. Normally I cannot use it because of performance problem.


Here is Cygwin version I'm using:

cygwin  1.3.12-2
gcc 2.95.3-5
gcc-mingw   3_1-20020516-1


I don't use pthreads emulation in order to maintain compatibility to 
previos versions. So I'm using for multithreading _beginthreadex familly 
funtions, the same that work using Watcom.

Could anyone give me a hint ?

Thanks in advance, Ignasi Villagrasa. GRI S.L.

For /cygdrive/s/foo, chown silently failed and ls -l foo

problems creating apache service

[Paul Cantalupo]

Hello,

I am using cygwin 1.3.17 on Windows 2000 (SP3) and cygwin apache 1.3.24.
I read the Apache/Cygwin page, http://httpd.apache.org/docs/cygwin.html,
to figure how to run apache as a service. I used this command line:

cygrunsrv -I apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe

The service is created just fine but then, under the apache service
properties, the Path to Executable contains
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe. So naturally, when I click Start,
Apache doesn't start and I get an error message saying that the apache
service couldn't be started.

What gives here? The Path to Executable should be /usr/sbin/httpd.exe,
right?

Thanks,

Paul

seeing is a general mismapping between the parameters cygrunsrv takes
and what's reported in the services applet.  You'll see the same thing
with sshd or any other service you install with cygrunsrv.  It's nothing
to worry about and not the source of your problems.  You should review 
the information in the Apache readme for Cygwin and the Cygwin archives 
to help you track your problem further.

Subject: problems creating apache service


Hello,

I am using cygwin 1.3.17 on Windows 2000 (SP3) and cygwin apache 1.3.24.
I read the Apache/Cygwin page, http://httpd.apache.org/docs/cygwin.html,
to figure how to run apache as a service. I used this command line:

cygrunsrv -I apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe

The service is created just fine but then, under the apache service
properties, the Path to Executable contains
C:\cygwin\bin\cygrunsrv.exe. So naturally, when I click Start,
Apache doesn't start and I get an error message saying that the apache
service couldn't be started.

What gives here? The Path to Executable should be /usr/sbin/httpd.exe,
right?

Thanks,

Paul

Grep says file exists and then doesn't grep it

[Mark Blackburn]

If I type:
   $ grep -e hello -r .
I get:
   grep: .: File exists
and grep doesn't search the contents of any files

If I try compiling it myself from the setup source package (grep-2.5-1) 
this doesn't happen anymore. Grep behaves as expected. Has anybody else 
seen this behaviour?

Subject: NTSEC  ntwrk drives?; chown/chmod/ls -l only wrkg on local
drives



chown,chmod and ls -l work just fine on local drives, but
not on network drives. 

My /tmp is on the local c drive,
and /cygdrive/s is a network drive on our NT4.0 SP6A PDC;
all commands below done on a NT6.0 SP6A workstatation in the 
same domain as the PDC.

  /tmp $ id -un
  adm_tsr
  /tmp $ groups
  ES_staff.gbl Administrators Domain Users ES_admin.gbl Users ccm_users.gbl
  /tmp $ for dir in /tmp /cygdrive/s ; do
   cd $dir ; rm -f foo; touch foo; chown adm_ds foo
   ls -l foo
   echo $(getowner foo) # see http://peter.verhas.com/progs/c/nt/owner/
   rm -f foo
   done
  -rw-rw-r--1 adm_ds   ES_staff0 Dec 19 13:35 foo
  adm_ds
  -rw-r--r--1 adm_tsr  ES_staff0 Dec 19 13:35 foo
  Administrators

For /cygdrive/s/foo, chown silently failed and ls -l foo
said adm_tsr owned foo when Administrators was the real owner.

What am I missing?  Is there a fix for this, or do I have an
incorrect config setting?  I have included more background info below.

Re: rxvt customization questions

[Steve O]

 I'd also like to show the current working directory in the title bar of a
 rxvt console but haven't got a clue, so how can I achieve that?

Setting PS1 to:
PS1=\[\e]0;\h:\w\007\]$ 

Gets you the host and dir in the title bar with a $ prompt.

 I'd like to play around with colors like YellowGreen, Ivory or RedOrange -
 is there any possibility of getting these values working somehow, maybe with
 special add-ons?

You should be able to use any color in rgb.txt, as well as specifying
the color as #rrggbb where rr is the red amount in hex, gg green, etc.

 Unfortunately, I can't find out each necessary entry that will give the
 scrollbar a personalized new look, some of the settings do not work for me as
 expected, for instance Rxvt*troughColor (no effect at all). 

The pre-built rxvt in Cygwin, is only configured with one type of
scrollbar enabled.  That might be the problem.  I never really messed
around too much with the others.

Problems with fetchmail and ping

[David E. Bath]

I had everything working well with my fetchmail setup. Then without
making any changes to the cygwin files or .fetchmailrc, fetchmail
started reporting:

POP3 connection to .*.com failed: Connection refused  no
matter which server I try to access.

Ping for the same address returns:

PING: transmit failed, error code 65.

Since there are no man pages for ping, I have no idea what the error
code means.

This is with WinXP on my desktop PC. I have the exact same setup on my
laptop PC, again with WinXP, and it works just fine. I suspect it's a
WinXP setup problem, but I don't know where to go from here to solve it.

Any ideas?

Not likely.  I believe this package is provided by Chris Faylor.

Re: Grep says file exists and then doesn't grep it

[Randall R Schulz]

Mark,

I cannot reproduce your problem, but perhaps it's an interaction with FAT 
file systems and Windows '98? I have Windows 2K Pro and only one FAT 
volume, but the command you gave works fine for me on both my NTFS and my 
FAT volumes. There's also the possibility of this being an issue with your 
CYGWIN environment variable including ntea. Do you have sharing enabled 
on the volume or folder in question? Is the target on an SMB share? If so, 
is it a Windows server? Samba? Something else?

The fact that re-compiling gives you a working version makes me ask if 
you're trying the same invocation (using the new binary) in the same 
directory as the failing attempt?

Have you done a CHKDSK /F (or whatever the Windows '98 equivalent is) lately?

Grasping at straws, I know...

Randall Schulz

It could also be a not using the version of grep, you think you're

Yes.  You have ntsec on (it's on by default starting from 1.3.13, IIRC),
and the files in your /bin have the wrong permissions.  Try

$ chmod -R a+rx /bin

and see if it solves the problem.  You might also want to update your
passwd and group files - search this list for instructions.
	Igor

Igor,

Thanks, that was it. I did chmod -R a+rx * and that fixed the Xfree problem 
I was having with 'failed to open input method' as well.
I didn't realise the permissions had changed in Cygwin now, looks like I'll 
have to go back to the documentation and read up on it again.

Thanks for your help.

It took me a total of 3 days get my infected machine back up and running.
Most of the difficultly came from the fact that the worm and its
associated programs remapped a lot of the registry.

Norton identified 3 worms with the main culprit being Backdoor.SubSeven22.
Two of the exe's being used were wlhsnrbw.exe and avill.exe.

Again - many thanks!

Jack Rose

 Well, someone (apparently not you) installed Cygwin, or a program which
uses
 a cut down Cygwin install to function.


And this could indeed be a virus or worm.  There is at least one that
includes cygwin1.dll:

I'd certainly check your PC carefully for viruses, if I were you.

Re: Problems with fetchmail and ping

[David E. Bath]

It turned out to be a problem with ZoneAlarm as mentioned in the link. 
Funny thing, I hadn't run it since I got a router, but when I 
uninstalled it, it fixed the problem.

Thanks, Elfyn and everyone else!

Ping for the same address returns:

Since there are no man pages for ping, I have no idea what the error

This is with WinXP on my desktop PC. I have the exact same setup on my

WinXP setup problem, but I don't know where to go from here to solve it.

Any ideas?

Re: Grep says file exists and then doesn't grep it

And, it's wonderful to see people fixing bugs.  This bug really just
kept the status quo going for a couple of months.  However, 1.3.18 is
right around the corner.

The only thing that I don't understand is why rebuilding grep supposedly
worked.  I thought that maybe grep had a test for can I open
directories but it doesn't.

I'm almost tempted enough to think about rebuilding grep on windows 95 but...

Nah.

 Heh, nice bait...but I won't bite...seems like you're not in a good

 Funny how your email does that to me.
 
 To recap and elucidate:
 
 1) This is not a shortcut problem.  If it was the mailing list would be
 flooded with complaints.
 
 2) setup.exe produces old-style cygwin shortcuts.
 
 3) The user is allowed to assume that -mno-cygwin works fine.  It should
 be working much better in gcc 3.2 than it ever has before.
 
 4) You offered faulty advice when you the correct advice was to install
 the gcc-mingw package.  Please don't go on the you know that, I know that
 riff when you never even suggested that.

What would have been the point to repeat something that was already known by 
you, at 
the very least?  What was it I heard about me toos?  Perhaps it is that there is 
more value 
for some to pointing out falings of others rather than solutions for everyone...?

 
 5) Please do not suggest using other packages as a way to solve cygwin
 problems.

Fair enough, for as long as -mno-cygwin switch, or use thereof, is not being 
deprecated...if, however, -mno-cygwin is being deprecated or the use thereof is being 
officially deprecated, then what's the point in talking about it in the first place?

 
 6) workaround: A temporary kluge used to bypass, mask or otherwise avoid
 a bug or misfeature in some system.

I know how you hate it when people tell you they know something and you think 
they do 
not...even so, I have to say it again...you know that and I know that (that, in this 
case being 
the definition of a workaround).

 When something is not working you can't claim a workaround.

Do I need to say duh?  Or would it be better to say, You know that and I 
know that, 
therefore it is not an issue here and in fact we do agree even if you may prefer to 
believe 
that I do not know or agree with you that when something is _not_ working you _can't_ 
claim (it as) a (valid) workaround?

Re: Problems with fetchmail and ping

[Igor Pechtchanski]

Sorry for the off-topic post, but I just want to mention that some
firewall programs replace the standard networking DLLs with their own,
thus creating problems even if they are not run.  Just my 2c.

Re: Apache + PHP

[Elfyn McBratney]

Check you have all of the required dll's:

$ cygcheck $(cygpath -w /lib/apache/libphp4.dll)

The above outputs a windows path list containing the dll's required by libphp4. 
Concentrate on the ones in your cygwin root directory.

If you have all of your required dll's then your next step should be rebasing your 
dll's:

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-11/msg00798.html
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-10/msg01836.html
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-10/msg01018.html

This has come up contless times in the mailing list archives, so try and check there 
first before posting (http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/).

I'm feeling kinda tired, have I missed anything? :|

Re: Apache + PHP

[S . L .]

 If you have all of your required dll's then your next step should be
 rebasing your dll's:
[...]

I could say that rebasing never worked here 100 %. For the 1.3.17-1 cygwin
and 1.3.24-5 apache  co. versions, I couldn't get a clean working
server on w9x (okok, I know, NT is the recommended platform :). For those
versions, although the server was starting and serving, there was an Error
message box that popped-up for every forked thread. Annoying.

A good solution (that works quasi-OTB now :), is to use the old style
monolithic shared core httpd dll library, that contains all modules -- i.e.
preparing external modules using --with-apache= option. My libhttpd.dll in this
case has 1.7 M (mod_proxy, mod_rewrite, mod_ssl and mod_php included).

Fetchmail or some other interface to MS Exchange ?

[Dieter Meinert]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

Hi all,
since I'm required to use a win box now, I need some
interface outside 
outlook to the exchange server (sorry, no other protocols
like pop or imap 
currently) Is there anything available and any experience
out there ?

(I want to fetch the mail from the server automagically, 
filter it with my own programs and then put it to local
outlook AND a standard
unix mailbox, if possible.

Seasons greetings   
Dieter
