Re: Package Proposal: Xcoral
Hello Igor, Why? I'm thinking of some people who'd want to use non-Cygwin tools to look at and debug the package source. NTEmacs comes to mind. This is not a Cygwin application and I don't want to support it. And besides that, you can still look at the source, though you should know how managed mounts are working. But then the cygwin xcoral maintainer tobe needs to wait until a new upstream release is available? Using managed mounts solves this issue in the best of all possible ways how to do s.th. like this. Well, I guess a managed mount is okay as an interim measure until the upstream package has the renamed file. But I'm uneasy about using this as a standard way to build a package. Not as standard, probably this issue will be resolved in future releases if the upstream maintainer is not one if those guys;) Gerrit -- =^..^=

It works well, even has a nifty installer that installs it as a service. The command line binaries (host, dig, rndc, etc) all play nice under Cygwin too. I'm not really a fan of BIND's design and config format but the win32 port works well. Of course, I'd rather see a Cygwin-based resolver + net tools. Interesting tidbit: In win2k if you tried to enter 127.0.0.1 for the resolver in the network settings GUI it would kindly tell you that this was an invalid value and to contact your ISP or whatever. I had to set the value directly in the registry. Apparently someone convinced them that it was indeed possible to run a resolver on localhost, and in XP the dialog does not appear. Brian

Re: Package Proposal: Xcoral
I am contacting the authors of xcoral to ask for their cooperation with developing this package. While this may not work, it would be the best solution in the long run if their distribution is made more portable. I am also porting xcoral to MAC OS X; where the same problem exists. So changing the file names will kill 2 birds with one stone. And make the management easier. However, I am prepared to release a managed mount distribution of the xcoral source in the event that the authors do not comply with the requests and/or if their response will be unacceptably slow. thanks for you support and suggestions, Charles Assistant Professor Spelman College Genius is most often in the obvious E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (best way to reach me) Physical: Science Bldg Office 219 (Tapley) Phone: 404-270-5880 Fax: 404-270-5881 WWW: www.spelman.edu/~hardnett Snail: Spelman College Computer Science Department Box #1257 350 Spelman Lane, SW Atlanta, GA 30314 Igor Pechtchanski [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/05/04 12:57 PM Please respond to cygwin-apps To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Charles R.

Here's what I did: * From http://search.cpan.org/~ni-s/Tk-800.024/ download and unzip Tk-800.024 * cygwin perl Makefile.PL x ^ tells it to use X-windows You could try 'perl Makefile.PL' if you want to try without (all this is mentioned in the README.cygwin) * cygwin make * cygwin make install * cygwin Since I had an older version of perl, I also need to: cygwin cd /usr/X11R6/lib cygwin ln -s libX11.dll.a libX11.a BEFORE I built TK. Gerrit P. Haase says that this issue has been fixed with perl-5.8.5 for Cygwin (I haven't checked). Good luck, Charles

Items under Cygwin-X menu do not start.
Dear Cygwin Enthusiasts, Forgive me if I ask a newbie question, but I couldn't find an answer on the web, faq, or mailing list. So despite the dire warnings on the web page I just wanted to ask... I downloaded and installed cygwin yesterday on a dell 600m laptop, running Win XP SP1. While X starts ok when I run comments from the cygwin prompt when i try to use the menu items that were placed in windows start menu nothing seemed to happen. I copied the commands out of the short cut and ran them directly from the cygwin prompt, still no luck and no error messages... An example of the command that is not working for me is C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\run.exe xterm -display 127.0.0.1:0.0 or from the cygwin propmpt /usr/X11R6/bin/run.exe xterm -display 127.0.0.1:0.0 If I then start a Xwin by hand, then the command from the cygwin prompt works but still not from the windows start menu. I am a bit confused by the whole business. Yours, NPML

Appl that uses Compositor extension crashes XWin
Hi, I'm running X.Org 6.8.1 with the compositor extension enabled (+extension Compositor). I compiled the CVS version of xfwm4 (the windows manager of XFCE, http://www.xfce.org) with compositor support. However, every time I start xfwm4, the X-Server crashes immediately. I can't find any log to research what's happening, and nothing is shown on the stdout of XWin. Can anybody suggest how to research *why* this crashes? I'd like to see it fixed :) Maarten

Alexander, if this is because of missing fonts, why does it work when I run it from a CDE session started with XWin :1 -query remotehost? Doesn't is still use the fonts that are local to the X-Server? eg.

Re: More pipe problems (was Re: [Fwd: 1.5.11-1: sftp performance problem])
I've been working on this, and I think I now understand the underlying problem, but I don't yet have a fix. The problem is that NtQueryInformationFile is stranger than I ever imagined. First, some background, to be sure we're all speaking the same language: Windows pipes actually seem more similar to UNIX domain sockets than POSIX pipes. In particular, Windows pipes have a server side and a client side. Most of the Windows pipe terminology is from the standpoint of the server. An inbound pipe transfers data only in the client-server direction, an outbound pipe transfers server-client, and a duplex pipe transfers both ways. We use CreateNamedPipe to make an inbound pipe for reading: this is the server side. Only the input buffer size is relevant for such a pipe ... we should probably set the output buffer size to zero to emphasize that it is not used. We currently set both input and output buffer sizes to the same value, which is harmless but misleading. We then use CreateFile to obtain a handle to the other (client) side of the pipe for writing, with attributes to allow NtQueryInformationFile to work. When we call NtQueryInformationFile with the FilePipeLocalInformation parameter (FILE_INFORMATION_CLASS), it fills in a FILE_PIPE_LOCAL_INFORMATION struct, which contains the following fields (among others that are not directly related to pipe buffering): ULONG InboundQuota; ULONG ReadDataAvailable; ULONG OutboundQuota; ULONG WriteQuotaAvailable; The InboundQuota and OutboundQuota are the input and output buffer sizes, respectively, that were specified for CreateNamedPipe. For our pipe configuration, therefore, the OutboundQuota is irrelevant: we should be checking the InboundQuota when we are interested in the pipe size. This does not currently affect us because we set InboundQuota == OutboundQuota, but we should fix it. The ReadDataAvailable field is always zero on the client side of an inbound pipe. We're ignoring it, as we should be. Our code assumes that the WriteQuotaAvailable field tells how much space is available for writing. Well, not quite. For an empty pipe, WriteQuotaAvailable == InboundQuota. When data has been written to the pipe (but not yet read by the other side), then WriteQuotaAvailable is decremented by the appropriate amount, until the pipe is full, when WriteQuotaAvailable is zero. WriteFile blocks only when it tries to write more than WriteQuotaAvailable. All of this is normal and expected. But there is a strange twist: When a read is pending on an empty pipe, then WriteQuotaAvailable is also decremented! I can't imagine why this would be the case, but it is easy to demonstrate using a pair of small test programs that I wrote to experiment with pipe buffering. This behavior is unfortunate, because it means that we aren't currently distinguishing pending reads and writes. However, now that I understand what's really going on, I can focus on working around it. We have been baffled by the apparent contradiction that was nicely summarized by Corinna: Do I understand that right? sftp is in the blocking read on the pipe, there is data in the pipe and nevertheless read doesn't return? That's odd. ReadFile only blocks when the pipe is completely empty. If there is any data in the pipe, then it returns immediately, possibly supplying less data than was requested. When ReadFile blocks, there really isn't any data in the pipe. Our select code is just confused by the decremented WriteQuotaAvailable field, because it looks like a *write* is pending! So we start to throttle the writes, which causes the data transfer to slow down, or even to block (if the requested read was large enough). I think my speculations about POSIX atomicity requirements related to PIPE_BUF were a red herring. Ditto for hypothetical bizarre pipe buffering behavior. The real problem here is NtQueryInformationFile. I want to first try reversing the direction of the pipe. We don't really care which end is the server or client, so we could easily modify our pipe creation code to make an outbound pipe, and if WriteQuotaAvailable from NtQueryInformationFile behaves sanely, then we're done. If that doesn't work, then I have some other ideas about how to distinguish pending reads and writes. I hope to have more info to report soon. -- Bob
Cygwin openssh(d) login without password
Hi, I'm having terrible trouble trying to be able to login without a password to a cygwin sshd, even from another user on the same machine. The sshd is working fine for password logins. I've read lots of web pages about how to set it up, and I believe I've followed them, eg http://bumblebee.lcs.mit.edu/ssh2/ (for openssh to openssh): Consider the following case where I have two users on the same computer, joe (who runs the ssh client), and mary (joe logs into the mary account): The ssh client user's identity has to be in the other user's authorized_keys2 file. In this example, the two files are identical. The permissions of the files have to be right: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/.ssh ls -al total 1 drwx--+ 2 mary None0 Oct 5 15:05 . drwx--+ 3 mary None0 Oct 5 13:30 .. -rw---1 mary None 607 Oct 5 15:05 authorized_keys2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]/.ssh ls -al total 12 drwx--+ 2 joeNone0 Oct 5 15:36 . drwx--+ 39 joeNone0 Oct 5 15:36 .. -rw---+ 1 joeNone 668 Oct 5 14:08 id_dsa -rw---+ 1 joeNone 607 Oct 5 14:08 id_dsa.pub -rw---+ 1 joeNone 9695 Oct 5 14:57 known_hosts And yet it is still asking me for the password: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/.ssh ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: The only other things I can think of are the contents of ssh_config and sshd_config. sshd_config includes: DSAAuthentication yes RSAAuthentication yes PubkeyAuthentication yes AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys2 Am I doing anything wrong?

Re: How to prepend a directory to the PATH to accommodate CVSNT?
Hi, Siegfried: In my opinion, I don't think it a good idea to use native Windows program in cygwin. Yes, you can remove your cygwin version of cvs.exe in /usr/bin and create a symbolic link there, pointing to /cygdrive/.../cvsnt/bin/cvs.exe. And it in fact will run instead of cygwin version. But the native Windows program will not recognize the strange path offered by cygwin's shell. If you are always using relative path, I think the native Windows program will work as well. Or you can write a simple wrapper to translate the cygwin path into native Windows path. Who knows? Who cares? Good luck! Edward L.

On 3 Oct, Igor Pechtchanski wrote: Having mount.exe and cygwin1.dll in a specific dir and then run mount -m after set PATH=. should be the way to go. Yes, that was the idea. Igor Well, I was running this script from a version of Cygwin installed on the network. In other words, I want to avoid writing DOS batch scripts (since they really are such a sad waste of time). Bill Hughes's post of jscript + Windows scripting host looked interesting, but I didn't see a clear advantage to using that than to using Cygwin from the network: especially since the scripting host is only available on newer Windows OS versions - so it's not portable. And thanks to those who seemed to say that using mount is a good way to test. I was interested to see that seeing mount points only of the form /$CYGDRIVE_MNT/$DRIVE_LETTER/path-to-somewhere is a good indicator that Cygwin is not installed. Where CYGDRIVE_MNT can be determined this way: # Set CYGDRIVE_MNT to the mount point to be inserted in front of absolute # path names used to refer to drive mappings. By default the mount point # is /cygdrive, but if the user has set it to be / then $CYGDRIVE_MNT will # be empty. Basically, the user can choose /mnt or anything they like. # CYGDRIVE_MNT=`mount -p | sed -n '2s| .*||;s|^/$||;2p'` Overall though, all that seems more complicated than just using cygpath -w /, (cygpath / surely must use the mount info?), so I trust this is equivalent - and simpler for a script! As I mentioned, when I performed the experiment on a PC with Cygwin not installed, the output from cygpath -w / consisted of just a single backslash, which is an easy thing to check. luke -- 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/

Re: Shell script ignores $PATH?!
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So my guess is that when a script with no #!/path line is run, then the default is to run /usr/bin/sh to start it, and the PATH simply doesn't come into it. If you want to specify what shell is used to run a script you either need to specify it in the shebang of the script (#!/path/to/shell) or you need to start that shell explicitly (/path/to/shell /path/to/script). If you try to execute a script with no shebang then the behavoir is going to be system-dependent. On cygwin that means defaulting to /bin/sh, as you can see from spawn.cc:spawn_guts() if (buf[0] != '#' || buf[1] != '!') { pgm = (char *) /bin/sh; arg1 = NULL; } In other words, you were being too ambiguous. Explicitly call the shell that you want if it differs from the norm. The it'll use whatever is in the path is a DOS-ism.

Re: Run program in background.
Moises Deangelo wrote: I did a program in C. That program needs to run for a long time, because of this it is ideal that he works on background. I do not have been managing do that. is there some command? Any lib, anything I thank the help. Your question is not clear. Run in the background can mean lots of things. If you just want your program to simply run in the background, launch it with a at the end of the command from the shell. However, if it expects to use stdout, stdin, or stderr, it will stop -- so these must all be redirected to files or pipes. This will still leave it attached to the terminal and process group of the shell, however. Thus you will not be able to log out of the command prompt with the background jobs unless you detach them. To get around this you can use the nohup and/or setsid commands when launching it. If you want your program to daemonize itself (rather than relying on the user to do it when invoking it), then you will have to read some unix programming books about the steps involved. For example, Perl's Proc::Daemon does the following: 1. Fork a child and exit the parent process. 2. Become a session leader (which detaches the program from the controlling terminal). 3. Fork another child process and exit first child. This prevents the potential of acquiring a controlling terminal. 4. Change the current working directory to /. 5. Clear the file creation mask. 6. Close all open file descriptors. As an alternative, under Cygwin you can run your program as a service. In this mode you needn't daemonize from within your program, as the cygrunsrv program launches your program and waits on it. Thus cygrunsrv can run any normal program as a service, without needing special code in the program. However, you must be mindful of permissions and ownership as by default you will be running as the SYSTEM account which does not always have the same access as user accounts.

So I tried to re-format it and was denied. On investigation it turned out that Norton System Works had protection enabled on this drive. I disabled it and 'cp' now works again. Also if you check the exclusions on a drive that Norton is protecting you'll see that '\temp' is excluded. So for me at least disabling Norton Protection on a folder or drive that I intend to use Cygwin on is the way to go. Many thanks to all who replied.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New packages: t1lib-5.0.2-1/t1lib-x11-5.0.2-1 - Library for generating character- and string-glyphs from Adobe Type 1 fonts
Hi The packages t1lib/t1lib-x11 are now available with the Cygwin distribution: * http://site.n.ml.org/info/t1lib/ (Homepage) * http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/libs/graphics/ (Download location) DESCRIPTION: t1lib: == sdesc: Library for generating character- and string-glyphs from Adobe Type 1 fonts ldesc: t1lib is a library distributed under the GNU General Public Library License for generating character- and string-glyphs from Adobe Type 1 fonts under UNIX. t1lib uses most of the code of the X11 rasterizer donated by IBM to the X11-project. But some disadvantages of the rasterizer being included in X11 have been eliminated. Here are some of the features: - t1lib is completely independent of X11 (although the program provided for testing the library needs X11) - fonts are made known to library by means of a font database file at runtime - searchpaths for all types of input files are configured by means of a configuration file at runtime - characters are rastered as they are needed - characters and complete strings may be rastered by a simple function call - when rastering strings, pairwise kerning information from .afm-files may optionally be taken into account - an interface to ligature-information of afm-files is provided - a program to generate afm-files from Type 1 font files is included - rotation and arbitrary transformations are supported - there's support for extending and slanting fonts - underlining, overlining and overstriking is supported - new encoding vectors may be loaded at runtime and fonts may be reencoded using these encoding vectors - antialiasing is implemented - Right-To-Left typesetting is supported - Font subsetting is easily possible - support of composite character information - stroking of character outlines with variable strokewidths - An interactive test program called 'xglyph' is included in the distribution.

RE: setsockopt SO_REUSEADDR

Huh? But that's exactly what SO_REUSEADDR is supposed to _prevent_ from happening. That's why it's called _REUSE_addr, because it lets you *re-use* an addr, without getting an error message. Why would you expect setting it to stop you from reusing the address? why doen't bind() return an error under cygwin? Because SO_REUSEADDR works _correctly_ on cygwin, perhaps? cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today -- 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/
