I've updated the version of inetutils in cygwin/latest to 1.3.2-12. Version 1.3.2-12 solves the following problem: - ftpd misbehaves when switching the user context by switching back to the fixed uid 0 instead of the uid under which ftpd has been started. No problem with 1.3.1 but with the upcoming 1.3.2. =========================================================================== IMPORTANT NOTE: inetutils-1.3.2-12 depends on an installed ncurses package! =========================================================================== When updating inetutils, take care that inetd.exe and subsequent processes don't run anymore. To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Run setup and answer all of the questions. Note that if this is the first time that you've run the new GUI version of setup, it will currently download the whole cygwin net release again. After this point it will only download what is needed. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe to the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
