tin shows ? for german umlauts
hi list, I'm a cygwin-nuser who wants to use unixbased programs as mutt, pine, tin or slrn on my winxp(sp2)-machine. mutt and slrn are working fine in bash, only tin makes problems:.look at subject. In a german usenetgroup was said, that this problem is a cygwin- not a tin-problem because cygwin is not made to support 'locales'. I'm not a programmer, only a nuser, who wants tin working fine under cygwin. What can I do, to see the german umlauts in tin instead of questionmarks? regards Reinhard

RE: Problems starting X and a solution to be appended to the FAQ
Martin Sebastian Wain wrote on Friday, September 14, 2007 4:45 PM:: I was going crazy with the fixed font error... to later find out (somewhere) that it was caused by the DOS/Text mode (\r\n) in the instalation of cygwin. With a textmode mounted root, it seems the fonts fail to load, and the diagnostic from X isn't very helpfull. I'm a newbie with this, and it was hard enought to figure out. If you append it to the FAQ maybe someone else doesn't have to suffer from this. -Martín It's not obvious which FAQ you looked at. Did you read this in the X FAQ? http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof If you did, and followed the instructions, then even if your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 is on a text mode mount, setup *should* have created a binary mount for the fonts directory. At least, that's what it used to do, but I've a suspicion it may have been removed. If you followed those instructions and that didn't happen, then the FAQ should probably have a third reason added to question 8.4, worded something like this: | 3. /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts is on a textmode mount. | | Run the command: | | mount -M /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts | | If it is shown as textmode, you should do the following: | | umount /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts | | If this reports no such file or directory, you can safely ignore | this - it just means that the directory wasn't mounted. | | rm -rf /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts | mkdir /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts | mount -b $(cygpath -m /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts) /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts | | If the last command fails with an error message stating | insufficient rights, try: | | mount -b -u $(cygpath -m /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts) /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts | | Then re-run setup.exe. | | For each of the following packages, if they are marked Keep, then select | Reinstall, otherwise leave them as they are: | * xorg-x11-f100 | * xorg-x11-fcyr | * xorg-x11-fenc | * xorg-x11-fnts | * xorg-x11-fscl In case any of the above lines have been wrapped, lines not starting with | are supposed to be on the end of the preceding line. I don't know if anyone currently maintains the cygwin-X FAQ, so if it doesn't appear there, hopefully this reply will be found by searching the archives.

severe performance problems in cygwin
Hi, I have severe performance problems with cygwin. Cygwin becomes almost unusable. The problem seems to go away when cygwin window is out of focus, e.g. when I click on some other window (not cygwin), cygwin performance rapidly increases.

Re: severe performance problems in cygwin

The problem seems to go away when cygwin window is out of focus, e.g. when I click on some other window (not cygwin), cygwin performance rapidly increases. It has something with output to console window. When I decrease the windows size performance also increases. This seems likely to be associated with your video driver. For example, you might be using a generic text emulation installed automatically by Windows, when a driver meant for your video card might be better.

Re: cross-device mv regression in latest snapshot

I've ruled out my changes in coreutils-9.6-5, as a fresh CVS coreutils build exhibits the same problem. Rather, via a gdb trace, it appears this call is the problem: open(file2, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_EXCL | O_BINARY, 0600); It is creating the file on the samba share, then returning -1 as the fd. This is weird behaviour. It turned out that this was a result of always creating a file with a valid security descriptor instead of just a default descriptor when creating a file on a Samba share. The security descriptor has the local user SID in it's ACL, but Samba maintains another user SID. There's still no solution for a transparent mapping between these two SIDs. Anyway, the behaviour of the NtCreateFile call is rather strange. Apparently Samba creates the file first, and then, afterwards, checks the security descriptor when it should return the file handle. It finds that the permissions don't match and *bing* returns STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED and a NULL handle. That's not helpful. I have reverted the patch from last month for now.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: OpenSSH-4.7p1-1
I've just updated the version of OpenSSH to 4.7p1-1. This is a new major upstream release. The Cygwin release is created from the vanilla sources. The official release message of 4.7p1: OpenSSH 4.7 has just been released. It will be available from the mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/ shortly. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol version 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. Once again, we would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued support of the project, especially those who contributed code or patches, reported bugs, tested snapshots and purchased T-shirts or posters. T-shirt, poster and CD sales directly support the project. Pictures and more information can be found at: http://www.openbsd.org/tshirts.html and http://www.openbsd.org/orders.html For international orders use http://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order and for European orders, use http://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order.eu Changes since OpenSSH 4.6: Security bugs resolved in this release: * Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec. Other changes, new functionality and fixes in this release: * sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing installations are unchanged. * The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1) sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks. * ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for arcfour256/hmac-md5. * A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as [EMAIL PROTECTED]. UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately 20% faster than HMAC-MD5. * A -K flag was added to ssh(1) to set GSSAPIAuthentication=Yes * Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set. * ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away without passing the full exit status. (bz #1261) * The following bugs have been fixed in this release: - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work (bz #616) - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (bz #856) - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. these could cause copies to be aborted with a protocol error (bz #891) - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated (bz #1196) - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple mechanisms (bz #1220) - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option (bz #1224) - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked into the client. (bz #1225) - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwadings have been established. (bz #1232) - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files (bz #1236) - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients. (bz #1262) - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space, whereupon it would exit with a fatal error. (bz #1286) * Portable OpenSSH bugs fixed: - Fix multiple inclusion of paths.h on AIX 5.1 systems. (bz #1243) - Implement getpeereid for Solaris using getpeerucred. Solaris systems will now refuse ssh-agent(1) and ssh(1) ControlMaster clients from different, non-root users (bz #1287) - Fix compilation warnings by including string.h if found. (bz #1294) - Remove redefinition of _res in getrrsetbyname.c for platforms that already define it. (bz #1299) - Fix spurious chan_read_failed for istate 3 errors from sshd(8), a side-effect of the hang on exit fix introduced in 4.6p1. (bz #1306) - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed (bz #1322) - Fix SELinux support when SELinux is in permissive mode. Previously sshd(8) was treating SELinux errors as always fatal. (bz #1325) - Ensure that pam_setcred(..., PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED) is called before pam_setcred(..., PAM_REINITIALIZE_CRED), fixing pam_dhkeys. (bz #1339) - Fix privilege separation on QNX - pre-auth only, this platform does not support file descriptior passing needed for post-auth privilege separation. (bz #1343) Thanks to everyone who has contributed patches, reported bugs and tested releases.

Re: [rxvt packaging bug?] New rxvt introduces broken font default
Hi, Max Bowsher wrote: I don't think it makes sense to now start shipping rxvt with a font configuration which leaves native mode broken out-of-the-box. I agree 100% with that, besides I have X11 installed and use it extensively, but I never use rxvt-X11 because it does not work properly with the dead accents, and it is almost useless for non-English languages. Perhaps, instead of bothering about how the console looks, something that is better to leave to the user, it would be more useful to provide a rxvt-X11 linked to the standard X11 library, so that dead accents are supported.

Space in Home Directory Path
Ok this is really a newbie question. I moved from W2k to XP and reinstalled cygwin. On W2k, my Cygwin home directory was placed in c:\cygwin\home\gang upon installation, where gang is the user name. Now on the XP, it is in c:\Document and Settings\gang. This created a lot of problem whenever I have to use path names because of the spaces in the path name. So my question is: Is there a way to change the home directory on the XP machine to c:\cygwin\home\gang? Or alternatively, get around the space problem? I read the FAQ, and it only says to avoid names with space but doesn't say why it installs the home dir to a path with space, or how to correct it. I tried reinstalling Cygwin but it didn't offer any choice of where the home should be placed. I know I can simply create another home/gang under anywhere but cd won't bring me there. -- 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/

#2 does not.
script #1 - works from the command line and in crontab:
rm c:/Movies/*
ln -s f:/Movies\ 2/* c:/Movies
ln -s g:/Movies\ 3/* c:/Movies
script #2 - works from the command line but not in crontab (this scripts
creates links for movies modified less than 30 days old):

Anyone have any idea why the find isn't working properly when in the

with the parsing possible (since I made sure i have full access to all the

with the environment variables. thanks in advance for any ideas.

The problem is that you're assuming that the environment you have when you run interactively is the same environment you have when you run the script through 'cron'. That is not true.

How to use the X clipboard
I need to set the X server option, emulate3Buttons, in order to use the X clipboard with the Cygwin system's mouse. The FAQ tells me that I can add, -emulate3buttons ms, to the X server arguments. However, if I start the server with startx -- -emulate3buttons 10 all of the X server's default arguments seem to get overriden. I would like to know where are the X server resources are located so I can add this option without overriding the X server's default arguments. On a related note, the server and display addresses default to 127.0.0.1, and that limits clipboard use to clients on the local host. Because this network gets its addresses through DHCP, I would like to know if there's a way to tell the X server beforehand what the network address is. I assume I can parse the output of Windows netstat after booting and add the address to /etc/hosts before starting the X server, but I would welcome any clues, hints, or suggestions how to go about telling the resolver library about the network address with a documented interface.

Updated: OpenSSH-4.7p1-1
I've just updated the version of OpenSSH to 4.7p1-1. This is a new major upstream release. The Cygwin release is created from the vanilla sources. The official release message of 4.7p1: OpenSSH 4.7 has just been released. It will be available from the mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/ shortly. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol version 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. Once again, we would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued support of the project, especially those who contributed code or patches, reported bugs, tested snapshots and purchased T-shirts or posters. T-shirt, poster and CD sales directly support the project. Pictures and more information can be found at: http://www.openbsd.org/tshirts.html and http://www.openbsd.org/orders.html For international orders use http://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order and for European orders, use http://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order.eu Changes since OpenSSH 4.6: Security bugs resolved in this release: * Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec. Other changes, new functionality and fixes in this release: * sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing installations are unchanged. * The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1) sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks. * ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for arcfour256/hmac-md5. * A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as [EMAIL PROTECTED]. UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately 20% faster than HMAC-MD5. * A -K flag was added to ssh(1) to set GSSAPIAuthentication=Yes * Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set. * ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away without passing the full exit status. (bz #1261) * The following bugs have been fixed in this release: - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work (bz #616) - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (bz #856) - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. these could cause copies to be aborted with a protocol error (bz #891) - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated (bz #1196) - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple mechanisms (bz #1220) - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option (bz #1224) - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked into the client. (bz #1225) - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwadings have been established. (bz #1232) - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files (bz #1236) - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients. (bz #1262) - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space, whereupon it would exit with a fatal error. (bz #1286) * Portable OpenSSH bugs fixed: - Fix multiple inclusion of paths.h on AIX 5.1 systems. (bz #1243) - Implement getpeereid for Solaris using getpeerucred. Solaris systems will now refuse ssh-agent(1) and ssh(1) ControlMaster clients from different, non-root users (bz #1287) - Fix compilation warnings by including string.h if found. (bz #1294) - Remove redefinition of _res in getrrsetbyname.c for platforms that already define it. (bz #1299) - Fix spurious chan_read_failed for istate 3 errors from sshd(8), a side-effect of the hang on exit fix introduced in 4.6p1. (bz #1306) - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed (bz #1322) - Fix SELinux support when SELinux is in permissive mode. Previously sshd(8) was treating SELinux errors as always fatal. (bz #1325) - Ensure that pam_setcred(..., PAM_ESTABLISH_CRED) is called before pam_setcred(..., PAM_REINITIALIZE_CRED), fixing pam_dhkeys. (bz #1339) - Fix privilege separation on QNX - pre-auth only, this platform does not support file descriptior passing needed for post-auth privilege separation. (bz #1343) Thanks to everyone who has contributed patches, reported bugs and tested releases.
