Igor, That directory holds the various shared protocol modules which are dlopened as needed, should you build lftp that way. In other words, it serves the same purpose as /usr/lib/apache does for httpd. However, I'm assuming he built the lftp protocol modules static, thus leaving the module dir empty. As a side note, it is possible to build lftp on Cygwin with shared protocol modules (I've done so myself). However, it requires a lot of ugly hacking to the autotool stuff. If the maintainer is interested, I can send him my modifications. Cheers, Nicholas

Re: Xcdroast
Camron, are you still trying to make xcdroast work ?

I'm running XP Pro, so my account (cwfox) is the administrator and I have no idea what the password for root would be. Best Regards, Camron Camron, Well, Cygwin doesn't have a working su, but you can accomplish the same goal by setting up sshd and allowing passwordless login as SYSTEM from your account. You can then do ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]. However, there's still a question of *why* you need to su root. What capabilities of root do you need? If you need the ability to switch user contexts, then SYSTEM as root should be fine. If you need to create files owned by root, then you can make the Administrators group root and simply use chown.

RE: Xcdroast
Sylvain, You can set up public key authentication for SYSTEM from individual accounts, which would make it no less secure than password-based authentication. The SYSTEM user can always switch to any other one without a password. But this is irrelevant in this case, for two reasons: 1) If you want xcdroast to switch the user context to that of a normal user, you could try running it as a service using cygrunsrv. Services run as SYSTEM by default. 2) It's my guess that on Linux only root has access to various low-level drivers needed to burn CDs. I doubt that Windows has this particular restriction (it might require administrative privileges, though). It's very likely that the xcdroast code simply checks whether it's running as root (uid 0) and fails to run otherwise. In this case, you could remove the check altogether, or change it to something more Cygwin-friendly (see, for example, the Cygwin-specific patches to inetd and proftpd, to name a few). Hope this helps, Igor On Sat, 23 Aug 2003, Sylvain Petreolle wrote: Igor, I have the same setup and dont think that allowing SYSTEM access as passwordless is a good idea. And this procedure needs a running sshd and/or inetd. The reason why we need a su root is because xcdroast must be run as root first to enable the ability to run it as as normal user. Anyway, I think this can be done via getting it from a linux box and doing a chown on it.

The windows machine currently uses a dialup connection for internet/email access, but is being converted to using them through ssh to a Linux machine (a process that may take a long while). The ssh works fine after closing the dialer. Is there a way to do the same function a /etc/resolve.conf to specify the domain first as the order for looking for the host?

Hey, i just went through this myself. When you start the service make sure you give the argument -i, it'll turn on TCP/IP networking. next set the environment variables: PGDATA= /path/to/data/folder/ PGDATABASE = your_dbname PGHOST = localhost PGPASSWORD = password PGPORT = 5432 PGUSER = username that worked for me. Also, I know this may be a security-related Bad Thing (which wasn't much of an issue for me), it seemed to work a lot smoother skipping over the postgres user setup and just running the service under my username. Just make sure you're an Administrator, and under start run secpol.msc Log on as a service your username is listed. oh, and for some weird reason (i know it's gonna sound stupid), but I had to reboot after install for it to work. I sat there for an hour trying to troubleshoot it, got fed up, rebooted, and it worked itself out... Anyway, hope this is of some assistance... - Original Message - From: Jason House [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 7:12 PM Subject: postgres help I've gone through all the steps to set up postgreSQL on windows XP. I have updated permissions (to /tmp /usr/bin /usr/bin/*), verified the system path variable, and verified that ipc and postmaster services have been started. I don't understand why I'm getting the following error: $ psql -U postgres template1 psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server running locally and accepting connections on Unix domain socket /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432? The error does not change if I log in as myself or as postgres. Any hints as to what to try would be greatly appreciated. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
snapshot, what a happy sound (fixes a couple of problems - 1.5.3 soon)

I'd appreciate it if people would test the snapshot and report failures or successes here. Using this snapshot, sshd still eats up all CPU time when running a remote session. That would be fixed if I could generate a new snapshot but newlib breakage makes that impossible. Sigh. I guess this means that I won't be releasing a 1.5.3 soon after all. I've fixed the newlib breakage and built a new snapshot. I don't detect any excessive CPU consumption now. This snapshot also has fixes for the overlapping buffer problem in malloc/mmap. Thanks to Corinna for tracking this down. It obviously wasn't an easy task. For the technically minded, this turns out to be a longstanding problem in cygwin's sbrk implementation. Please try it. 1.5.3 is nigh. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
