This has nothing to do with running the X Window System on Cygwin.

Re: windowed mode seemingly unavailable

2004-03-21 Thread Brian Deckard

Takuma, thanks for your quick response.  My apologies in advance to all 
(because I don't think this will end up in the proper thread), but I have 
still not received a copy of either Takuma's e-mail or mine in my inbox.

I did read the response on the website though and am now very close to a 
solution.  Using 'startx -- :0', I can open the xserver window with an xterm 
started.  However, the xterm does not have any toolbars allowing it to be 
resized or repositioned.  Compounding the problem is the fact that whenever 
I launch a remote app like say xclock, it opens on top of the xterm (and 
since there are no toolbars, I cannot move or close it either).

I have tried looking through the xwin arguments mentioned here:
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/ug/configure-cygwin-xfree-options.html
but do not seem to see anything related (I have tried -scrollbars and 
-nodecoration).  Just as a workaround, I also tried to see if installing the 
other slightly older package of xfree86 using the setup utility would bring 
me back to the old green toolbar with white background arrangement that was 
working for me before, but no success.

Brian,

The default mode from startx is now -multiwindow that you got.
Although its performance has been improved, you can edit
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx to modify defaultserverargs.  Or you can
override default args on invocation, for example 'startx -- :0'
(-- indicates that following arguments should be given to the
X server).

Re: Cygwin Tk for X?

Jeffrey C Honig wrote:

I'm curious why the only Tk for Cygwin opens Windows windows, why isn't
there one that opens X11 windows?  I'd like to be able to use send
between apps running other hosts.
Because, I believe I have this correct, Cygnus developed a Win32 native 
port of graphical interface in Tk for use with their debugging tool 
(Insight, IIRC).  This version of Tk has been distributed with Cygwin 
for as long as I can remember and possibly forever.

Is it just because no-one has taken the time to build it?
Yes, that is sort of it.  In other words, people are open to the idea of 
adding an X11 version of Tk, but it needs to be done in a way that 
allows both the X11 and Win32 versions to be installed at the same time. 
 This sort of splitting, renaming, and script foo will take about 60 
hours.  So, it isn't just that people are lazy, it is that it will take 
a significant amount of time to complete all of the tasks, test it, and 
fix errors in the packaging scheme.  I've thought about doing this at 
times, but I haven't got time for it at the moment.

Logfile symlink vulnerability

2004-03-21 Thread Eran Tromer

Hi,

If /tmp/XWin.log is a symlink, XWin will merrily follow it and write to
whatever it's pointing to (see LogInit() in os/log.c). This allows
standard symlink-following attacks.

Example: Alice runs ln -s /home/Bob/phd-thesis.tex /tmp/XWin.log under
her account. Later Bob runs XWin under his account; XWin fails for some
reasons and writes to /tmp/XWin.log; Bob life's work gets overwritten.

(Of course, that's interesting only if ntsec is used.)

Some possible fixes:
* Place the logfile somewhere in the user's home directory.
* Refuse to follow symlinks, or to write to existing files. Most users,
failing to clean up logs, will not get new logs after the first failure.
* Give the logfile a unique filename, a la the uniq utility.

In theory, but have you actually tried it and confirmed that it works 
with two different users that did not already both have permissions to

With two distinct users, not in the same group, and with neither an

I just don't see how you could overwrite a file at all if you don't have 
premission on the underlying filesystem... what OS was this with?  Were 
you using NTFS or FAT32?  FAT32 could explain things... in which a user 
could overwrite a file anyway since FAT32 doesn't provide security, so 
protecting for this in XWin.exe would be pointless.

Please provide more details of your test.

Windows XP, NTFS drive. Two different users; the attacker is a
restricted user, the victim is an administrator. The attacker runs
ln -s /home/victim/foo /tmp/XWin.log and then the victim runs XWin
badarg and beholds his ~/foo being overwritten.

 I just don't see how you could overwrite a file at all if you don't
 have premission on the underlying filesystem...

All the attacker user does is create /tmp/XWin.log as a symbolic link.
It's the victim which performs the actual damage, by following the
symbolic link to one of its *own* files and overwriting it. The only
permissions involved are /tmp being world-writable (it doesn't even
matter that /tmp had the sticky bit, if /tmp/XWin.log didn't exist
beforehand).

It's really a classical Unix security pitfall that occurs whenever you
write to files in world-writable directories. It has to be dealt with at
the application level, either by being careful about existing files or
by using atomically generated unique filenames.

You need to run a window manager (e.g., twm).  The multiwindow mode comes
with a built-in window manager (i.e., the Windows one), but for all other
modes you need to explicitly run one.

 I have tried looking through the xwin arguments mentioned here:

Just try running twm  from the xterm before you start other clients...
You can also add it to your xinitrc.

Okay, how about an AMD Athlon XP 1600+ to 2100+ with Palomino core?

Hmm... no one seems to have the old Athlon 1.33 or 1.4's lying around. 
Oddly enough, they are selling for more on eBay than used Athlon XP chips.

Which brings me to my next point: I just discovered that I could 
actually use any of the AMD Athlon XP 1600+ to 2100+ chips that use the 
Palomino core with my current Iwill KA266 motherboard (though specs 
claim it only works with standard Athlon's up to 1.4 GHz).  Note that 
the Thoroughbred cores are also available in speeds matching those of 
the Palomino from 1600+ to 2100+, but the Thoroughbred cores will not 
POST with this motherboard.

I checked eBay and pricewatch and found the  1600+ Palomino's are 
selling used (eBay) for $15 and new (pricewatch) for $34 while the 2100+ 
Palomino are selling used for $40 and new for $50.

I am asking if anyone has one of these Palomino core chips that they 
have retired to their parts graveyard.  If so, please allow me to take 
it off of your hands if you do not intend to sell it.  This faster chip 
should help cut my build time another 30% or so, which will allow me to 
get more actual work done on Cygwin/X instead of waiting for compiles to 
finish.  Be aware that this is the only wife-approved processor upgrade 
that I can get at the moment, especially after the case and RAM that I 
bought.  :)

Thanks in advance,

Harold

P.S. I will post publicly if someone arranges to send me a chip off 
list, so you can know that I have not been offered a chip until you see 
a followup in the mailing list.

PATH in startxwin.sh

2004-03-21 Thread Fabio Somenzi

Recent versions of startxwin.sh contain the following line:

export PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:$PATH

I have changed it to

export PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:$PATH

to avoid problems with PATHs containing spaces.  Maybe this is of
general interest.

 I'd be happy, if it did so. So I try and skip all of the cleaning up and

 Can I get into trouble some time if I don't clean up?


Okay, I found it out by myself. When I log out of Windows an open X server is not
properly closed as well. So there's an entry left in /tmp... that shams an open server
process. Now I check for it via ps and grep. It seems to be waterproof.

Re: Minimal test case for Make crash bug

I just reproduced the crash on a second system, this time on
a WinME box, where my foo.c open-lots-of-fds program
made it up to 180 or so fds before crashing.
Before I updated from ftp.lug.udel.edu, I tried the
(six-month-old?) cygwin that was already on the WinME box;
it worked fine with foo.c.  Thus this seems to be
a problem introduced in the last few months.

Bash tries to connect to the internet

Hi, I just downloaded Cygwin yesterday, and Bash tries to connect to the
internet when I open it. ZoneAlarm stopped it though. I talked with the nice
people at Perlmonks, who say they have never had that happen. So I came
here. When I open Bash, I get a message from ZoneAlarm asking me if Bash can
connect to the internet at 199.166.219.2. Vim does the same thing, including
the IP address. I downloaded almost all of my packages from
www.get-software.com using the setup program before switching to the
University of Calgary mirror. Did I download hacked copies of the software?

Thanks

how to use dll created by cygwin in MS Visual C++?

2004-03-21 Thread wxWindows_study

I follow cygwin's user guide,create a dll as following:

//
// this the dll file :@test_dll.c
//created by songyewen 2004/03/21
//

#include stdio.h

int show_hello()
{
printf(this is the testing string from cygwin apps's dll file\n);
return 0;
}

//--
gcc -c test_dll.c
gcc -shared -o test_dll.dll test_dll.o

so I get the test_dll.dll

//--

//
//this file is a demo for testing dll in cygwin apps
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
//created by songyewen 2004/03/21
//
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
show_hello();
}


//-
gcc -o test_main.c test_main.exe -L./ -ltest_dll
so I get test_main.exe and can run test_main.exe successfully!


But I failed to use the test_dll.dll in MS Visual C++?

Who can help me?

thanks in advance!!

--disable-locale already does what you've patched tin.h for, 
see include/autoconf.h after running configure.

OTOH, setting --disable-locale has a side-effect: you lose NLS
alltogether, i.e. try the commandline I posted previously and you
won't get messsages in German anymore. My tweak addresses this issue,
i.e. you should find a way to execute bindtextdomain() and
textdomain() functions when NO_LOCALE is set.

Re: Trailing commandline arguments not allowed.

Hi Igor.  Crap I messed up in my last post.  Please do not read it.  It will
only upset you.

I got the service to exist in the Services applet with:

$cygrunsrv -I Apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -t auto

but it does not behave as a normal service.  A normal service set to auto
will start with no user intervention at boot.  But that is not the case here.
I still have to fire up Cygwin into the bash shell from the desktop.  And since
I have to do that I see no real benefit in running the above Apache as
a service.  Should I start Cygwin as a Service also?

 I tried $cygrunsvr -I Apache Oh forget it.  The problem was my servername.
 
 I cannot have $cygrunsrv -I Apache 1.3-p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -t auto
 
 It has to be $cygrunsrv -I Apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -t auto

No.
 
 It was the space in Apache 1.3

You know this ancient saying: Spaces have to be quoted, unless

Re: Starting a Win32 app from inside Cygwin

2004-03-21 Thread Thorsten Kampe

* Chris Powell (2004-03-21 03:52 +0100)
 I currently use cygwin in WinXP to display X session from an AIX machine.
 This works very well.  The software on the AIX box can call a word processor
 (Uniplex) on the AIX box to edit text files.  What I'd like to do is instead
 of launching the AIX word processor inside of the X session is launch Word
 on the WinXP machine to edit the file out on an NFS.
 
 Another site is currently doing this, but they are all linux and OpenOffice.
 The script on the AIX box does a rsh back to the linux box and opens OO word
 processing with the text file on an NFS.
 
 It there anyway to do this back to a WinXP box?

MS Word is no X client to my knowledge - although answering the
question in your subject: Starting a Win32 app from inside Cygwin
is no problem at all - neither GUI nor command line (in most cases).

Problem loading simple GUI example under Win XP Pro

2004-03-21 Thread Ron

I'm new to cygwin and wanted to test the hellogui.c example provided.  When I
build the executable with the command gcc -mwindows hellogui.c, I get the
warning cannot find entry symbol _WinMainCRTStartup; defaulting to 00401000.

It would seem that this is a simple problem to resolve, yet after spending more
time than I'd like to mention, I have been unable to get this to load properly.

I downloaded the 1.5.7-1 release on March 9th.

I'd appreciate some advice.

How many fds can you open?

I'm having trouble on both my recently-updated cygwin
machines.  They crash after opening 130 to 180 fds.
Here's a little program that just counts how many
fds it can open for /dev/null.  I suspect a few of
you will also have my problem.  Could you run this
and report back how many fds it reports, or whether it crashes?
Thanks,
Dan

This is not something I know how to fix.

So, I guess it's broken for good, then.

Oh well.  I will put a notice on the main cygwin web page that it no
longer works on Windows 95.

No.  Please do not do this.

There is no reason to flood the list with data like this.  By your own
admission, you don't know enough to debug the problem and asking for
data with no one available to do anything with the data is just asking
for noise.

Can't login to proftpd unless shell is running.

2004-03-21 Thread Paul Fournier

I have this very strange problem.

I am runing proftpd in standalone mode as a service registered with
cugrunsrv.  The service starts and runs fine when I reboot the system.
However I have found that I cannot login to through ftp unless I am running
a shell in cygwin.  If the shell isn't runnning I get the following:

Status: Connecting to localhost ...
Status: Connected with localhost. Waiting for welcome message...
Response: 220 ProFTPD 1.2.9 Server (ProFTPD Default Installation)
[my_computer]Command: USER my_win_username
Response: 331 Password required for my_win_username.
Command: PASS ***
Response: 530 Login incorrect.
Error: Unable to connect!

Now if I run cygwin then I can log in appropriately with now problems.  I
would like to be able to use proftpd without having a user logged on to the
system at all.  Any help woud be greatly appreciated.

** I am using the default basic configuration file for proftpd

OK, I built a debugging version of cygwin1.dll and dropped it on top of
the normal one, then ran my test program with
  export CYGWIN=error_start:C:\\cygwin\\bin\\gdb.exe
  ./foo
and hit 'c' and then 'bt' as suggested.  Looks like the debugger is a
bit happier with the debugging build.  I don't have time to look at it
tonight, but in case it makes any sense to you, here's the backtrace.

Can you provide the output from:

  info dll

  p alloc_sz
  p cygheap
  p cygheap_max

I assume that you're using cygwin 1.5.9 and that your mount table
is as you reported in your original message.  Could you also report
on the output of pwd?

SetErrorMode

2004-03-21 Thread Benson Margulies

I'm trying to run some builds under cygwin with SetErrorMode set to
avoid Windows dialog boxes in the event of hard errors. I'm failing. I
get dialog boxes. Is cygwin doing anything to call SetErrorMode and undo
my efforts, or do I need to look elsewhere?

Re: Trailing commandline arguments not allowed.

George,

Please (re)read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/apache-1.3.29-1.README, which is the
official documentation for apache on Cygwin.  Any other occurrences of
Cygwin in the Apache documentation should be considered incidental, and
are subsumed by that README.

 Hi Igor.  Crap I messed up in my last post.  Please do not read it.  It
 will only upset you.

 I got the service to exist in the Services applet with:

 $cygrunsrv -I Apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -t auto

 but it does not behave as a normal service.  A normal service set to
 auto will start with no user intervention at boot.  But that is not the
 case here. I still have to fire up Cygwin into the bash shell from the
 desktop.  And since I have to do that I see no real benefit in running
 the above Apache as a service.  Should I start Cygwin as a Service also?

Joel,

Cygwin is trying to access DNS because it invokes a Windows function that
does that.  It is possible to prevent Windows from accessing DNS when
trying to find out the hostname of the machine, but it's beyond the scope
of this list, and you'll have to ask on a Windows forum for further help
with this.  I'd suspect it has something to do with the 'HOSTS' file, and,

 CGF, even though this is not Cygwin-specific, perhaps we could mention

 also affects rxvt.

 This is a rare, windows-specific problem.  It hardly qualifies as a FAQ.
 It seems like a little judicious googling would be enough for anyone
 to figure this out.

 cgf

Fair enough.  Just for the archives, with the knowledge that Cygwin uses
MessageBeep() for its system beep, and that MessageBeep()  uses the
Default Beep setting, Googling for 'Default Beep disappeared' produces
a page with the above recipe.
Thanks for your patience,

Yes, it's a fresh update from ftp.lug.udel.edu, which has always been
a good mirror for me, and cygcheck confirms it's 1.5.9-1.  The cygwin
dll itself was freshly built from cygwin-shapshot-20040318-1, but
I got the same crash with the one installed by the setup utility from 
ftp.lug.udel.edu.

Here's the gdb stuff you asked for; I'll attach a fresh cygcheck.out
so you can see my mounts, which haven't changed.
Looks like cygheap is awful close to cygheap_max, hmm.  I don't
know what those are, but it sounds bad :-)
BTW what happens when you run my fds.c test program? How many fds do you 
get?

Window title by shortcut

Hi!

I'm trying to find a method for making it so that if I launch a specific shortcut to 
cygwin
it will have a title of my choosing, and keep it (not change to the current path and 
such).
I've searched the archive but all I could find were some procedures including lots of 
escape
characters, which I think would make it diffcult to set the title for this shortcut 
only (I
also don't know how to input the escape chars =/ -- newbie here).

Something like this should do it:

1. add in cygwin.bat (or a copy of it),  before bash command:
set __TYTLE__=%~1

2. in your .bash_profile add:
if [ $__TYTLE__ ]; then
  PS1=\[\033]0;\$__TYTLE__\007'
[EMAIL PROTECTED] \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$ '
fi

3. Create o shortcut with something like this in the target box:
C:\cygwin\cygwin.bat  Your Title


If I understood you right, this should solve you problem.

 Dan Kegel wrote:
  Got it.  I'm attaching a minimal test case.  glibc's makefile
  requires that Make be able to handle 140 levels of include recursion,

  under gdb or strace, in which case it works fine.

 Turns out the smallest test case is even smaller:

 int main(int argc, char **argv)

  int i;
  for (i=0; ; i++) {
  int fd = open(foo.c, O_RDONLY);
  printf(fd #%d is %d\n, i, fd);

 }

 This crashes for me at the 133rd fd unless I run it under
 gdb, in which case it runs quite happily forever without
 crashing (though it runs out of fds fairly soon).
 And this is a WinXP system with an up-to-date cygwin and
 scads of memory, not some Win95 box with 16MB...

FWIW; using the previously posted fds.c, slightly modified:
 I can reproduce this with 1.5.9-1 (ususally 133 iterations and a core
dump).
Switching to 1.5.8-1 cygwin1.dll rasies the limit to some 3200 iterations
(no dump).

 * Joel (2004-03-21 14:49 +0100)
  Hi, I just downloaded Cygwin yesterday, and Bash tries to connect to
  the internet when I open it. ZoneAlarm stopped it though.

 Yes, /great/ piece of software...

  I talked with the nice people at Perlmonks, who say they have never
  had that happen. So I came here. When I open Bash, I get a message
  from ZoneAlarm asking me if Bash can connect to the internet at
  199.166.219.2. Vim does the same thing, including the IP address. I
  downloaded almost all of my packages from www.get-software.com
  using the setup program before switching to the University of
  Calgary mirror. Did I download hacked copies of the software?

 Did you try to find out what 216.75.188.50 is? It's a DNS server
 (name server) - probably the one you use for all queries.

FWIW; using the previously posted fds.c, slightly modified:

Excellent, thanks for the info.

I just downloaded 
ftp://ftp.lug.udel.edu/pub/cygwin/release/cygwin/cygwin-1.5.8-1.tar.bz2
and dropping its cygwin1.dll into my c:/cygwin/bin seems to solve the
problem; I can now open zillions of file descriptors.
(Thanks for the nudge; I'd never tried to figure out how to do that before.)

(I had earlier tried to back off to an earlier cygwin using the
installer gui, but that backs you all the way down to 1.5.5 or
something, and it didn't work well for me.)
So I guess 1.5.9-1 was a bit of a problem child.  Hopefully
next release will have that resolved.

Possible over allocation of memory resources by cygwin

2004-03-21 Thread Charles L. Werner

I have observed the following situation:

I have been running a C program that utilizes approximately 132 MB of RAM under both
Cygwin (1.5.9-1, Windows XP professional, 1 GB ram) and under Linux.  The same program 
with
identical data was run on both machines. One is a 3 GHz P4 the other a 3 GHz Xeon.
On both the Linux machine and Cygwin, top shows about 132 MB of space needed, however,
the  task manager shows an additional commit jumping from 196 to 483 MB when the 
program starts.
Not only that, but the program runs about 3 times slower. (1500 sec vs 500 sec(Linux)).
A larger program that nominally requires 450 MB, causes the commit charge to go up to 
over 2 GB!
followed by frantic swapping.
Several program seem to suffer similarly, and I have not seen anything like this 
before.
Any thoughts? Could this be related to the latest changes in cygwin?
Thanks,

Charles

sshd on WinXP machine in Win2003 Domain -- can't log in

2004-03-21 Thread MIke Hanby

Hey y'all, (sorry if this double posts)

System:  Windows XP Pro with brand new install of cygwin running sshd.  This
system is a member
 of a Widnows 2003 Active Directory domain.

Problem:  I've gone through the config steps listed below and unable to
connect to my sshd server.
On the sshd server, from the cygwin prompt I enter the
following:
$ ssh -p 3020 localhost
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password:
Last login: Sat Mar 20 16:01:17 2004 from localhost
Fanfare!!!
You are successfully logged in to this server!!!
/bin/bash: Permission denied
Connection to localhost closed.

Permissions on /bin/bash were -rwxr-x---+, I tried adding +rx, still get the
same error
-rwxr-xr-x+   1 joeshmo  Users  527360 Oct 20 07:12 /bin/bash*

Here's what I did to configure sshd
1.  Installed Cygwin with packages that I downloaded today while logged in
as my
Active Directory user, joeshmo
2.  Created a new Active Directory user, addomain\sshdproc, and added the
following rights using the
Windows 2003 Server Local Security Policy
Create a token object
Log on as a service
Replcae a process level token
Adjust memory quotas for a process
3.  Added sshd as a service on the Windows XP Pro machine, it is set to
start as the user
 addomain\sshdproc
4.  Ran ssh-host-config and answered YES to all questions, including
privilege separation
5.  Ran the following on the Windows XP machine
 mkpasswd -l -d  /etc/passwd
 mkgroup -l -d  /etc/group
6. changed permissions on the following files
 touch /var/log/sshd.log
 chmod 644 /var/log/sshd.log
 chown sshdproc /var/empty /var/log/sshd.log /etc/ssh_*
7.  Start sshd
 cygrunsrv --start sshd

I then get the error above, /bin/bash: Permission denied
Any idea what file(s) it might be referring to?
Any ideas on what else I can do?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

[ANNOUNCEMENT] GNU CLISP 2.33 (2004-03-17)

2004-03-21 Thread Sam Steingold

Common Lisp is a high-level, general-purpose programming language.
GNU CLISP is a Common Lisp implementation by Bruno Haible of Karlsruhe
University and Michael Stoll of Munich University, both in Germany.
It mostly supports the Lisp described in the ANSI Common Lisp standard.
It runs on microcomputers (Windows NT/2000/XP, Windows 95/98/ME) as well
as on Unix workstations (Linux, SVR4, Sun4, DEC Alpha OSF, HP-UX, BeOS,
NeXTstep, SGI, AIX and others) and needs only 2 MB of RAM.
It is Free Software and may be distributed under the terms of GNU GPL,
while it is possible to distribute commercial applications compiled
with GNU CLISP.
The user interface comes in German, English, French, Spanish, Dutch
and Russian.
GNU CLISP includes an interpreter, a compiler, a debugger, CLOS,
a foreign language interface, sockets, i18n, fast bignums and more.
An X11 interface is available through CLX, Garnet, CLUE/CLIO.
GNU CLISP runs Maxima, ACL2 and many other Common Lisp packages.

More information at
  http://clisp.cons.org/,
  http://www.clisp.org/,
  http://www.gnu.org/software/clisp/ and
  http://clisp.sourceforge.net/.
Sources and selected binaries are available by anonymous ftp from
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/clisp/
and its mirrors.

2.33 (2004-03-17)
=

Important notes
---

* All .fas files generated by previous CLISP versions are invalid and
  must be recompiled.  Use CUSTOM:*LOAD-OBSOLETE-ACTION* to automate this.
  See http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes.html#loadfile for details.

User visible changes


* NO-APPLICABLE-METHOD, NO-PRIMARY-METHOD and NO-NEXT-METHOD now signal
  METHOD-CALL-ERROR or METHOD-CALL-TYPE-ERROR.
  See http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes.html#meth-call-err for details.

* New user variables CUSTOM:*APROPOS-MATCHER* and CUSTOM::*APROPOS-DO-MORE*
  make APROPOS more flexible in search and output.
  See http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes.html#apropos for details.

* New function EXT:MOD-EXPT efficiently computes the composition of MOD
  and EXPT on integers.
  See http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes.html#int-func-ext for details.

* New function EXT:ARGV returns the command line arguments passed to runtime.
  See http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes.html#argv for details.

* New generic function GRAY:STREAM-POSITION extends FILE-POSITION to
  Gray streams; FILE-POSITION now works with streams other than FILE-STREAMs.
  See http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes.html#gray for details.

* DEFINE-METHOD-COMBINATION and friends are now implemented.
  Thanks to James Anderson [EMAIL PROTECTED].
  This change obsoleted all compiled file.

Portability
---

* Improved portability for nearly all platforms: Linux, MacOS X, Solaris,
  Tru64, HP-UX, AIX, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, BeOS.

* Removed Acorn RISCOS support.

* Removed AmigaOS support.

* Removed support for MSDOS and OS/2, using EMX.

* Removed support for Borland C compiler on Win32.

* Added FFI support for x86_64 (AMD64) Linux and PowerPC MacOS X.

Re: sshd on WinXP machine in Win2003 Domain -- can't log in

Mike,

Thanks.  First off (unrelated, but annoying): Norton Ghost screwed up your
path -- you should remove the quotes around
C:\Program Files\Symantec\Norton Ghost 2003\ in the PATH variable.
Other than that, everything in your cygcheck output seems in order.  The
only other thing I can think of at the moment is: is the home directory of
joeshmo readable by that user?  Can you please run ls -ln on joeshmo's
home directory?  Oh, and do you realize that what sshd thinks the home
directory is and what $HOME is set to don't match?

 Without the requisite information requested in the Cygwin problem
 reporting guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html we can only
 guess, but, since you had to change the permissions on /bin/bash, I'd
 guess that you'll need to change the permissions on at least /bin as well.
 Also, try running sshd and ssh with a few -v flags (multiple -v's increase
 the verbosity level)...

Re: Trailing commandline arguments not allowed.

Yes I do.

So I followed the directions.  It said you must run httpd as root initially.
  To do this make a change so that I have,  User Guest. 
 Of course no one in their right mind enables the Guest account 
but I went ahead and left my Guest account alone 
(the directions did not say to enable that account) and made the entry directed.

Then the directions say, To install and start the HTTP daemon as Windows service use 
this command: 
  
  $ cygrunsrv -I httpd -d CYGWIN httpd (apache) -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -a -F 
  $ cygrunsrv -S httpd 

So I went ahead and did that.  The Service is now in my Services applet set to start 
automatically at boot.
  This looks alittle suspicious to me since the $cygrunsrv -S httpd will NOT occur at 
boot 
but hey I'm just following the directions.

I rebooted and the Apache server was not working.  I had to fire up Cygwin off my 
desktop into
 the bash shell and
$/usr/sbin/apachectl start to get the server running.

Again this is not the normal way of a service at boot.  It doesn't work.

Any other suggestions to get the Apache server to start as a service in the normal way?

 I'm sure you have a /usr/share/doc/Cygwin directory on your system.  Look
 for the file named apache-1.3.29-1.README in that directory.  Judging by

RE: Can't login to proftpd unless shell is running.

2004-03-21 Thread Paul Fournier

It seems I must be asking the wrong question here :). Is it possible that my
problem may be resolved by running proftpd through xinetd? Please let me
know if I should be addressing this question somewhere else.

Thank you

I have this very strange problem.

I am runing proftpd in standalone mode as a service registered with
cugrunsrv.  The service starts and runs fine when I reboot the system.
However I have found that I cannot login to through ftp unless I am running
a shell in cygwin.  If the shell isn't runnning I get the following:

Status: Connecting to localhost ...
Status: Connected with localhost. Waiting for welcome message...
Response: 220 ProFTPD 1.2.9 Server (ProFTPD Default Installation)
[my_computer]Command: USER my_win_username
Response: 331 Password required for my_win_username.
Command: PASS ***
Response: 530 Login incorrect.
Error: Unable to connect!

Now if I run cygwin then I can log in appropriately with now problems.  I
would like to be able to use proftpd without having a user logged on to the
system at all.  Any help woud be greatly appreciated.

** I am using the default basic configuration file for proftpd

Mike,

Thanks.  First off (unrelated, but annoying): Norton Ghost screwed up your
path -- you should remove the quotes around
C:\Program Files\Symantec\Norton Ghost 2003\ in the PATH variable.
Other than that, everything in your cygcheck output seems in order.  The
only other thing I can think of at the moment is: is the home directory of
joeshmo readable by that user?  Can you please run ls -ln on joeshmo's
home directory?  Oh, and do you realize that what sshd thinks the home
directory is and what $HOME is set to don't match?

 Without the requisite information requested in the Cygwin problem
 reporting guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html we can only
 guess, but, since you had to change the permissions on /bin/bash, I'd
 guess that you'll need to change the permissions on at least /bin as well.
 Also, try running sshd and ssh with a few -v flags (multiple -v's increase
 the verbosity level)...

 bash-2.05b-16 , apache-1.3.29-2.tar and uninstall my php but
after I reinstall everything and my php won't work anymore.

corruption in my
setup files of cygwin ?
BTW Is the mod_php4 still there in the server? how can i manually change the
setup.exe
init files and to let it display in the category - Web again ? (Note : I
tried to include another
site the mod_php4 is display at the category , but when i click it , my
setup.exe will be
crash and exit )

my last choice is to recompile the PHP myself , can anyone show me some
pages or details
instruction how to do it -
1. getting the source from ? (I believe this should be from the CVS)
2. getting the related libs and what are those required libraries , how to
check which is needed?
3. getting the related cygwin compilation tools , any related compiler , how
to install
4. compiling instruction  , any pre-require related tools ot libraries that
needed to compile before
re-compiling the mod_php4 source.
I have tried to look at many site thru search google , those infor are bit
and pieces and i counld not
find any good steps of instruction to handle this . pls help

thanks in advance.

Without the requisite information requested in the Cygwin problem

guess, but, since you had to change the permissions on /bin/bash, I'd
guess that you'll need to change the permissions on at least /bin as well.
Also, try running sshd and ssh with a few -v flags

crum, nope, can't maintane the connection with a local user either.
I get the same Permission Denied after logging in.

All of this worked before I joined this machine to the Windows 2003 Active
Directory domain, so it's got to be related, but beyond setting those Local
Policies on the Domain controller, I don't know what else to try.

   I then get the error above, /bin/bash: Permission denied
   Any idea what file(s) it might be referring to?
   Any ideas on

com/sun/jini/example/launcher/StartService

This command line in the Bash shell:

java -cp /files/jini1_2/lib/jini-ext.jar:/files/jini1_2/lib/jini-examples.jar 
com.sun.jini.example.launcher.StartService

becomes

java -cp /files/jini1_2/lib/jini-ext.jar:/files/jini1_2/lib/jini-examples.jar 
com/sun/jini/example/launcher/StartService

and so of course error is 

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError : com/sun/jini/example/launcher/StartService
Exception in thread main

What is wrong wiith Cygwin's usage of the java command console?  How do I convince 
Cygwin that I mean

com.sun.jini.example.launcher.StartService

and not

com/sun/jini/example/launcher/StartService?

Thanks.

Re: Trailing commandline arguments not allowed.

$cygrunsrv -R httpd
cygrunsrv: Error removing a service: OpenService: Win32 error 1060:
The specified service does not exist as an installed service

Removing the service is not the issue.  I have done that.  What I would like to do is 
remove everything and anything that has anything to do with Apache in Cygwin.  Can 
this be done?

Actually I think we can just forget this Ivan.  I have wasted Cygwin's ability to use 
and start the Apache server.  I don't feel like fighting with it anymore.  The 
directions all they resulted in was a perfectly fine running Apache server turning 
into wasted space in the Cygwin folder.  Now I just want all of it out.

Looks to me the change I made resulted in the loss of permissions.  I have uninstalled

 George,
 
 Use a little judgement.  For example, I run httpd as nobody (a new user
 I created for just that purpose).  I also used the -t manual cygrunsrv
 parameter, which means I have to start httpd manually (which suits me
 fine).  You can use -t auto instead if you want the service to be
 started at boot (when, in fact, something like cygrunsrv -S does
 happen).  The reason you need cygrunsrv -S in the instructions is that
 simply adding the service, even with -t auto, won't start it in the
 current session.
 
 As for your apache not working, see if there are any messages in
 /var/log/httpd.log, /var/log/apache/error_log, and the Windows Event log.
 It's likely either a permissions problem, or a problem with httpd.conf
 syntax.
 
 As a datapoint, try removing the service and starting httpd from the
 command line with the exact same flags as cygrunsrv starts it with (i.e.,
 -F).  This will at least eliminate httpd.conf syntax (if the service
 starts correctly).  For a more definite experiment, try running it from a
 system-owned shell.

  So I followed the directions.  It said you must run httpd as root initially.
To do this make a change so that I have,  User Guest.
   Of course no one in their right mind enables the Guest account
  but I went ahead and left my Guest account alone
  (the directions did not say to enable that account) and made the entry directed.
 
  Then the directions say, To install and start the HTTP daemon as Windows service 
  use
  this command:
 
$ cygrunsrv -I httpd -d CYGWIN httpd (apache) -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -a -F
$ cygrunsrv -S httpd 
 
  So I went ahead and did that.  The Service is now in my Services applet set to 
  start automatically at boot.
This looks alittle suspicious to me since the $cygrunsrv -S httpd will NOT occur 
  at boot
  but hey I'm just following the directions.
 
  I rebooted and the Apache server was not working.  I had to fire up Cygwin off my 
  desktop into
   the bash shell and
  $/usr/sbin/apachectl start to get the server running.
 
  Again this is not the normal way of a service at boot.  It doesn't work.
 
  Any other suggestions to get the Apache server to start as a service in the normal 
  way?

   George,
  
   I'm sure you have a /usr/share/doc/Cygwin directory on your system.  Look
   for the file named apache-1.3.29-1.README in that directory.  Judging by
   your reply, you looked in /usr/share/doc, not in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin.

 George,

 Please (re)read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/apache-1.3.29-1.README, which is the
 official documentation for apache on Cygwin.  Any other occurrences of
 Cygwin in the Apache documentation should be considered incidental, and
 are subsumed by that README.

  I got the service to exist in the Services applet with:

  but it does not behave as a normal service.  A normal service set to

Remove Cygwin entirely from Windows 2000 Server SP3

Is all I have to do to remove Cygwin from Windows 2000 Server SP3
 is remove any and all cyg*.* files from C:\WINNT\sytem32 and
delete the C:\cygwin folder?

cygpath solution

2004-03-21 Thread Vivek HS

Hi all,

I had faced the below problem when using the cygpath.exe.

Below is the data:
Was using cygwin 1.5.8 and the cygpath in that was crashing:


 10 [main] ? 1400 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve space for
cygwin's heap (0x616E 0x41) in child, Win32 error 487
C:\cygwin\bin\cygpath.exe (1400): *** m.AllocationBase 0x0, m.
BaseAddress 0x616E, m.RegionSize 0x1AA, m.State 0x1

  9 [main] ? 412 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve space for
cygwin's heap (0x616E 0x41) in child, Win32 error 487

checking for cl.exe... /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual
Studio/VC98/bin/cl.exe
  9 [main] ? 1400 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve space for
cygwin's heap (0x616E 0x41) in child, Win32 error 487
C:\cygwin\bin\cygpath.exe (1400): *** m.AllocationBase 0x0, m.
BaseAddress 0x616E, m.RegionSize 0x1AA, m.State 0x1


To resolve this had to get the cygwin snapshots(which are not tested)
from cygwin:

http://cygwin.com/snapshots/

2004-Mar-18
cygwin1-20040318.dll.bz2 using this dll resolved the problem with
cygpath.

Thanks.
Vivek
