Dynamic loading of cygwin dependent dlls
Hello! I have read several messages stating that dlopen does not work for dlls that depend on cygwin1.dll. (e.g. http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-06/msg01056.html). I have also understood that this is due to some structures not being initialized in that case. Is this dlopen problem limited to non-cygwin apps? I.e. is it true that an app that depends directly on the cygwin1.dll is incapable of dlopening dlls that depend on cygwin1.dll?

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Larry Hall wrote: snip From the information you provided so far, it looks to me like you installed initially some things as Administator and subsequently some others as fish. Correct. Is that not allowed?? Would that cause problems? (and if so, how/why would it? [cause problems]) So you have a mix-and-match of file permissions. What does you mean by that? I'd recommend one of two things: 1. Completely uninstall and remove the directory that you installed Cygwin to. Recreate the directory as the user you will install as and then run 'setup.exe' as that user. Pass. :) 2. Try changing the owner and/or permissions in your Cygwin tree to something amenable to the user you want to run as (via chown/chmod). Well, I took ownership of *everything* on all drives and all folders on my entire system just to see if that made any difference and it doesn't. :( What chown and/or chmod command should I (or do I need to) use? What options? And how would that fix things? And/or for that matter, how would using chown/chmod be better than using, say, Windows's existing ability to modify file system security settings?? Doesn't Cygwin simply utilize Windows's existing security features? Or does Cygwin implement its own security? Sorry for all these questions, but I really want to understand this! (so that it'll be less likely that I should have to bother you guys with questions/problems in the future) Thanks. :) Also, it looks like your '/etc/passwd' and '/etc/group' need some updating. Take a look at 'man mkpasswd' and 'man mkgroup' for some information on the options here. I read the man pages for both mkpasswd and mkgroup and then tried deleting those files and recreating them via: mkgroup -l /etc/group mkpasswd -l /etc/passwd but it didn't seem to make any difference. :( Some additional information (in case any of this makes any difference to Cygwin): 1. The Everyone group is, purposely, not normally included in ANY of my file/folder permissions on my system (in fact, it doesn't even officially exist as a valid user group on Windows 2000). Same with the Users, Power Users, etc, groups. The ONLY user groups I allow *any* access to my system to are the Administrators group and my [manually created] Friends group (and the only members of my 'Friends' user group is myself (fish), Administrator, SYSTEM, asswipe (my computer's name grin), a few test accounts I created (for some virtual test machines of mine) and my wife and daughter (although neither normally uses my system (since they have systems of their own) and only my wife has Admin privileges). However, there ARE files/folders all throughout my system (including within the Cygwin directory tree) with the [non-existent!] Everyone group amongst the security/permissions settings. shrug 2. I (fish) -- and ONLY me (AFAIK) -- have assigned ownership of ALL files and folders on my system. 3. I happened to notice (after using a handy dandy SysInternals[1] utility called AccessEnum to check out my permissions since I'm having problems with them) something that strikes me as rather odd: in the /lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3/include directory there are a few files (see below) with userid None(?!) in the write permissions(!!).

We are looking at using cygwin's shared memory functionality to get around this on windows (NT derivatives only). Your data won't even fit into a 32-bit address space, so I don't think shared memory is going to help you. Even if you're using an x86-64 platform, you have to bear in mind that you've got a virtual memory system there. If your data set is 4Gb, and your system RAM is 4Gb, then even mapping it into shared memory between processes will involve it going out to disk and back when the pagefile starts swapping.

Re: WinXP service problem
Ok. I think I figured out the problem. But I still do not have a solution for it. Here's what I think the problem is: When the script is run as a windows service, the user that's calling the script is SYSTEM. Inside the script is a call to ssh client with the required parameters. I pass it the absolute path of the id_rsa file. The issue seems to be that user SYSTEM is not the owner of id_rsa file so it is being asked for a passphrase. On the contrary, if I add the batch script to startup programs, then no passphrase is asked and I am logged in right away. The problem here is that the command prompt window stays on the screen. This is something I wanted to avoid to begin with. I haven't gotten around to start the server in debug mode since I haven't found a suitable time to bring down the ssh server. Thanks Rachan Larry Hall wrote: At 12:09 PM 8/4/2004, you wrote: I turned on verbosity for the client and performed my tests- called the batch script directly and from the seervice. Attached are the logs from SSH client for both cases. I have removed my server name and user name for security reasons. Thx for your help, Rachan OK, that's really not much help, as I suspected. All it shows is that the server responded differently to the key in one session than the other. You really need to start the server in debug mode and try each of these again. That's likely to provide you more insight to the problem. Two other things I noted: 1. You're using 'autossh.exe'. Since this isn't part of a Cygwin package, I'm assuming you built this locally via Cygwin. In any case, I'd recommend pulling this out of the equation. I'm not confident that this is causing you any of the difficulties you're seeing but it makes sense to eliminate the possibility. Also, if there is a problem there, it's not obvious that it's OT for this list at the moment. 2. You should really use your id_ra.pub file instead. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

Bug in GCC Install
There appears to be a bug in the configure scripts for GCC. This bug relates to the install procedure for gcov.exe, and only appears when you build gcc for multiple targets. The install snippet for gcc is: if [ -f gcov.exe ]; \ then \ rm -f /usr/bin/gcov.exe; \ /bin/sh /cygdrive/g/ChoiceW/Rev_3/cvs/src/developer/gcc-3.3.1-3/install-sh -c gcov.exe /usr/bin/`echo gcov|sed 's,x,x,'`.exe; \ fi Note that the install-sh line changes the name of gcov via `echo gcov|sed 's,x,x,'`, while the rm line uses a constant name. If the target is to a non i686-pc-cygwin machine, then the echo changes gcov to something like arm-gnu-gcov. Yet the file which is removed is still gcov.exe (in the first line.) The result is that if you install gcc for the host first, it installs gcov.exe. If you then install gcc for a target, it deletes the gcov built for the host. --Phil Brown -- 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/

But this isn't what it says in the makefile, this is what you saw fly past
on the commandline during a build. It's not canonical, and in particular
there is no way to determine if this is a completely valid snippet that has
been generated because you supplied the wrong configure flags.
What was your configure line?
The result is that if you install gcc for the host first, it installs
gcov.exe. If you then install gcc for a target, it deletes
the gcov built

Indeed. Looking at $builddir/gcc/Makefile from version 3.3.3, I see.
snip!
# Install gcov if it was compiled.
-if [ -f gcov$(exeext) ]; \
then \
rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/gcov$(exeext); \
$(INSTALL_PROGRAM) gcov$(exeext)
$(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/$(GCOV_INSTALL_NAME)$(exeext); \
fi
snip!
and since $(DESTDIR) should sooo not be the same for a cross
toolchain as it is for your native tools, that really shouldn't cause any
problem. And looking at your snippet, it seems to me that you have set
DESTDIR the same for both your cross toolchain and your native. That won't
work; the ${target}- prefixes won't prevent the unprefixed versions of the
names from clashing.
In particular, I work with cygwin, I build and install cross-compiled
versions of gcc like there was no tomorrow, and I haven't had any similar
problem myself yet.
cheers,

So, while always running chown from ssh-host-config would probably simplify the script, but I don't think that's the way to go. The problem is, that the script works for me(tm) and so I'm still curious what happens on other machines.

unused libraries in basic install
Hi! In the standard install cygwin-setup installs libraries which no program in the basic install needs: libncurses5 libncurses6 libreadline4 for all of them newer versions exist, and are in the standard install. Why install older versions by default (if there is a dependency, cygwin-setup would solve it)? Why not put the older versions from base to libs? I think base install means shell plus essential tools, plus all dependencies (libraries). Also by default gdbm libgdbm libgdbm-devel libgdbm3 libgdbm4 are being installed. Is gdbm really an essential tool? Why 2 library versions? Why a devel-package in the standard install? And is there really a need for dependency of the standard install of 3 different versions of libintl? (libintl1 libintl2 libintl3) Robert. _ Highlight Viewer - heben Sie von Ihnen gesuchte Wörter auf Webseiten hervor. http://toolbar.msn.at?DI=43XAPID=2170 -- 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/

9:1 that the text is 'ksh: /etc/profile[xx]: \n: not found', which does
sound like a lineend problem.
I ran into this once, when I modified /etc/profile with a text editor
that didn't understand Unix newlines without paying attention. Assuming
that this is the cause, and that /etc is mounted binary, dos2unix should
fix it.
