Hi Oh no! Not another ZoneAlarm question! Sorry.
I'm having the same problem as Zarko mentioned in http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/1580 Briefly: rsync hangs as soon as networking is involved. So for instance, $ rsync -v -v -v -v test1 localhost:test.xxx cmd= machine=localhost user= path=test.xxx cmd=ssh localhost rsync --server -vvvv . test.xxx opening connection using ssh localhost rsync --server -vvvv . test.xxx (hang) Similarly, I can't get ssh into my machine to work (out does work): $ ssh -v -v localhost OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.8a 11 Oct 2005 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for * debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0 debug1: Connecting to localhost [127.0.0.1] port 22. debug2: fd 3 setting O_NONBLOCK debug1: fd 3 clearing O_NONBLOCK debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/kris/.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /home/kris/.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/kris/.ssh/id_dsa type -1 (hang) This all worked till this morning when I had McAfee Internet Security, but then I unisntalled that one and installed the (trial) ZoneAlarm Security Suite (6.1.744.000). I did put relevant stuff in my 'trusted zone'. In fact, it even doesn't work anymore when I set ZoneAlarm's firewall to 'low' (meaning it's off). I did reinstall some things from cygwin (the cygwin dll, openssh, rsync, opensll), but after trusting cygrunsrv, sshd, ssh and rsync again, it still doesn't work. I've found various hints on the web on sshd, but most seem not relevant. For instance, - people complain about "Object" warnings of zonealarm when ssh-ing into the machine. That's not what I see, but I set "UsePrivilegeSeparation no" anyway. Doesn't help though. - you have to force the startup order of the sshd service after the zonealarm services (see http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/71890). I did that and it doesn't help. My ssh problem occurs even when starting the sshd daemon by hand anyway. - I've reinstalled cygwin dll, openssh, openssl, rsync (as Christopher Faylor possibly suggested in http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/1580). I then had to 'trust' ssh, sshd, rsync again, but all to no avail. My cygwin is up-to-date. I'm running XP home sp2. Output of cygcheck is attached. Any suggestions? Many thanks! Kris Thielemans
