I switched succesfully to cygwin V1.7.5 and it seems to work great :-) 4 things are to be emphasized: 1) usernames in v1.5 are case insensitive but not in v1.7.5. e.g. ssh me...@cygwinhost is not the same as ssh me...@cygwinhost http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2010-03/msg00007.html
2) sshd_config: "AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys" is not the same as "#AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys". I have to remark the line in v1.7.5 but not in v1.5. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2010-04/msg00026.html 3) I've installed the cygwin v1.7.5 in the same directory as the v1.5 before. In this case all the cygnus keys within the registry have to be removed. If someone install v1.7 in another directory as v1.5 they can work in parallel. 4) within Vista some windows programs (e.g. attrib) have problems with junction points if they run under a user with privilege SeBackupPrivilege. This can be solved by: "cygdrop -p SeBackupPrivilege attrib /S /D ..." thanks to the newsgroup cyg...@cygwin.com for their help in solutions :-) br Matthias -- Don't Panic ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
