Reporting that this (bloda issue?) has not shown up after I upgraded, after 1 week of use. :-> The other problem that has not shown up after 1 week of use is the tar/symbolic link, (bloda?) issue that resulted in symbolic links randomly being untarred either OK, or as empty files w/'000' chmod perms. Such a joy, to have this issues gone, thanks much! The fixed version: $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-5.1 chsi-2ce911dqcn 1.7.13(0.260/5/3) 2012-04-05 12:43 i686 Cygwin Unfortunately I did not note the version prior to upgrading. Also, not sure exactly which new version fixed the problems. The (at work) hosts that had the problem: case one: XP w/resident Symatec 11.0.4000.2295 anti virus case two: VMWare instance of XP running "Microsoft Security Essentials" 2.0.657.0 anti virus > (I did not run rebaseall, will plan to.) > > # example: "ssh txr6@somehost" treated like "ssh; txr6@somehost": > > ~ $ ssh txr6@somehost > usage: ssh [-1246AaCfgKkMNnqsTtVvXxYy] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] > [-D [bind_address:]port] [-e escape_char] [-F configfile] > [-I pkcs11] [-i identity_file] > [-L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] > [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-O ctl_cmd] [-o option] [-p port] > [-R [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] [-S ctl_path] > [-W host:port] [-w local_tun[:remote_tun]] > [user@]hostname [command] > bash: txr6@somehost: command not found > ~ $ ssh txr6@somehost > Last login: Thu Feb 24 16:32:57 CST 2011 on /dev/pts/5 from 10.237.138.122 > ****************************************************************** > somehost > > Access to this system is limited to authorized users only. > If you are not an authorized user of --SNIP > -- > some basic info: > > ~ $ date;uname -a; cygcheck -c cygwin > Wed, Feb 23, 2011 8:22:33 PM > CYGWIN_NT-5.1 neon 1.7.7(0.230/5/3) 2010-08-31 09:58 i686 Cygwin > Cygwin Package Information > Package Version Status > cygwin 1.7.7-1 OK > ~ $ echo $BASH_VERSION > 4.1.9(2)-release > ~ $ date;uname -a; cygcheck -c bash > Wed, Feb 23, 2011 8:23:06 PM > CYGWIN_NT-5.1 neon 1.7.7(0.230/5/3) 2010-08-31 09:58 i686 Cygwin > Cygwin Package Information > Package Version Status > bash 4.1.9-2 OK > > This is happening on two XP computers of mine. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
