Earnie was asking lately if it was time for a new release. I don't routinely build setup for the fun of it but was using it to test some gcc issues with _alloca. The _CRTIMP conflict came up instead. It can be easily avoided by adding -mno-fun-dllimport to compile of ini.cc. But that can wait, if you like, until there is a setup installable snapshot of mingw runtime that breaks setup.

Pending packages status (31 Mar 2003)
Hello, Since the list of pending packages is quite big now, I decided to remove nfs-server from it. It was taking a lot of space and now there is no activity on it anyway. Once Sam Robb gets back, I'll include nfs-server back in the list. 1.

Re: setup (ini.cc) vs CVS mingw-runtime
Danny Smith wrote: I've been expecting a bug report for mingw-runtime and ini.cc in setup for awhile, but haven't seen one, so I'll ask if the CVS mingw runtime is getting any testing with setup anymore. Was it ever? The problem is in the default usage of _CRTIMP ( = __attribute__((dllimport)) ) macro on all mingw runtime functions imported from dll. This usage provides a small to midling performance benefit. However. it can cause both compile time ICE and/or linktime multiple definitions (depending on order of declaration/definition/usage and version of GCC) when standard CRT functions declared in system headers (ie. fprintf in setup/ini.cc) are redefined. I'll make the _CRTIMP macro a no-op by default if someone will confirm that there is a problem with setup. I confirm your ICE. However, the redefinition of fprintf in ini.cc, is as far as I can see, totally unused, and can be removed. Robert: Can you confirm this, and approve me to delete it from ini.cc ? If so, this ceases to become a setup issue, and becomes one of mingw-runtime policy - so, up to you, Danny. Max.

Re: setup (ini.cc) vs CVS mingw-runtime
Ergo, this will be a problem when the next mingw-runtime comes out. Danny, if you have a patch for either mingw or setup, that'd be great. Does what you are suggesting impose any limitations on setup ? Probably simplest (for per-file override of _CRTIMP) is just to add #define _CRTIMP before including any other header. My preference, however, is to #define _CRTIMP as nothing by default in _mingw.h, thus reverting to old behaviour. And then add another condition like, #if __USE_CRTIMP, to enable it.

I agree with the sentiment above. I also think that moving all the static
functionality into the Script class is the way to go. However, as spare
time is sparse these days, I probably won't get to it for a bit. In the
meantime, the attached patch provides logging for preremove script in a
minimal way.

kerberos and cvs
No really, this IS on topic. Many moons ago, I grew so frustrated with the official cvs maintainers at cvshome.com -- no updates in forever, disdainful of outside contributions etc -- that I decided that the next release of cvs that I made would come from the cvsnt codebase, since that was seeing active development. Plus, it had support for many server protocols, and getting cvshome's cvs to act as a server on cygwin had limited success. Granted, cvshome is now seeing (some) activity (2 patch releases in eight months! Woo hoo!) but that doesn't change the problem with the servers; cvsnt is already designed for service on windows...even tho it ALSO compiles on unix. So, I'm looking at cvsnt, and... Well, I ran into a spot of trouble. For some unknown reason, the cvsnt maintainers removed the option of disabling kerberos encryption support at buildtime. That is, they made it mandantory. (Sure, you can choose whether or not to use kerberos at runtime -- but cvsnt can't be compiled without it. They ripped out all of the configure code and the #ifdef blocks in the code.) Now, presumably they had a reason for that action, however inscrutable. After going thru all that work to rip it out, they are understandably reluctant to put it (the option to disable k-support) back in. So, that means I need kerberos libraries. Well, I have managed to compile and build MIT kerberos v5, and have packaged it up here (no, this is NOT an ITP): http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/testing/release/krb5/krb5-1.2.6-1.tar.bz2 http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/testing/release/krb5/krb5-1.2.6-1-src.tar.bz2 http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/testing/release/krb5/krb5-doc/krb5-doc-1.2.6-1.tar.bz2 http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/testing/release/krb5/libkrb5-devel/libkrb5-devel-1.2.6-1.tar.bz2 http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/testing/release/krb5/libkrb5_0/libkrb5_0-1.2.6-1.tar.bz2 Or, simply point setup.exe at http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/testing/ However, here's the problem: 1) I know nothing about kerberos. I don't even know enough to test it. 2) I do NOT want to maintain this beastly piece of software. However, I understand it is quite popular and would probably be a welcome addition to the cygwin system. 3) This port does NOT contain the niceties like ssh-host-config scripts and whatnot. A fully-fledged cygwin port should probably install things like that, and maybe even hook into the sysvinit system that Sergey contributed. So, I put these packages up in the hope that someone will adopt them, and bring them into the cygwin fold. If so, then I'll continue on my current track with cvsnt (which hopefully will eventually lead to functioning cvs servers...) If not, then I'll either attempt to add the --disable-encryption --without-krb stuff back into cvsnt's configury, or (sigh) stay with the cvshome baselines. A note if anyone is interested in adopting these packages: I used some interesting tricks in the build script to convince it to build DLLs. short version: the MIT kerberos build system is crap. Longer version: make ; convert .a's to .dll's ; rm .exe's ; re-make only more complicated. I also renamed a bunch of the applications their manpages to avoid conflicting with the ones in inetutils. Check out the build script, and the README. I tried to be thorough documenting what I did. I'm in no rush here, but it would be nice if any interested parties chimed in...anybody have a need for kerberos? --Chuck

RE: Latest release observations
Jean-Claude,
I know it seems like this would be a simple change, but it isn't. There are
already 169 lines handling WM_DISPLAYCHANGE messages. It seems that your
message should already be handled, because we drop and recreate the
DirectDraw surface when the display size changes. The rootless mode uses
the Shadow DirectDraw Non-Locking engine by default, so the surface should
be being recreated at the correct point.
I don't think that this problem has anything to do with WM_DISPLAYCHANGE
processing. Someone will have to step through this in a debugger to find
out what is happening.

be receiving a
WM_DISPLAYCHANGE
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/g

when the display changes resolution, so I'm guessing here, but maybe a bit
of code in the function called
winTopLevelWindowProc
in
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin/winmultiwindowwindow.c
That would do something like
case WM_DISPLAYCHANGE:
if ( IsMultiMonitorMode( hWnd ) ) {
MoveWindow( hWnd, 0, 0, iCurrentWidth,
iCurrentHeight, TRUE );
}
break;
Of course, I only took a quick look at the code and I'm not entirely sure
how it all hangs together yet, but something like this should do

RE: Latest release observations
Hi Harold,
Thanks for piping up.
I think you may have inadvertently put your finger on the problem:
I'm using -engine 1, because I view the machine running XWin through
Netmeeting, and the Direct-Draw engine's rendering doesn't get picked up by
this remote tool.
So perhaps the code needs to also do something for the GDI engine when a
WM_DISPLAYCHANGE happens.
Does that make any sense?
In any case, I'd appreciate any light you can shed on it; I've downloaded
XFree from CVS and will soon start trying to debug the code myself, but I
expect a somewhat-steep learning curve.
Thanks.

be being recreated at the correct point.
I don't think that this problem has anything to do with WM_DISPLAYCHANGE
processing. Someone will have to step through this in a debugger to find
out what is happening.

One thing I might mention; I did some digging, and the XWin
window seems to
be receiving a
WM_DISPLAYCHANGE
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/g
di/pantdra
w_2qzp.asp
when the display changes resolution, so I'm guessing here, but maybe a bit
of code in the function called
winTopLevelWindowProc
in
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin/winmultiwindowwindow.c
That would do something like
case WM_DISPLAYCHANGE:
if ( IsMultiMonitorMode( hWnd ) ) {
MoveWindow( hWnd, 0, 0, iCurrentWidth,
iCurrentHeight, TRUE );
}
break;
Of course, I only took a quick look at the code and I'm not entirely sure
how it all hangs together yet, but something like this should do
the trick.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have just reinstalled my machine and therefore had to do a fresh
install
of Cygwin.
-multiplemonitors now works fine on my home machine, but for some
reason,
it still only uses one display on my computer at work. I'll have a look at
the log file and post back when I get a chance.
One thing I have noticed, that might be a nice simple
feature to add
is
this -
If I start Xwin in -rootless mode at 1024x768, it creates an
invisible root
window at screen coordinates 0,0
If I then play a DirectX game that changes the display's resolution to
800x600, when I exit the game, the XWin invisible root window is
now shifted
over to the right.
My fix would be simple:
If running in rootless mode and the resolution changes, move the invisible
root window back to 0,0.
Thanks.

Harold, At 15:50 2003-03-31, you wrote: KH, The scope is probably beyond the scope of this mailing list. I think you would be better off working first on a version of Cygwin/XFree86 that compiled without Cygwin... then, and only then, could you even begin to worry about wrapping XFree86 with a COM interface. Cygwin /XFree86 without Cygwin is Win32/XFree86, or some such, is it not? It always seemed to me that the target specifier ought to come after the main program name: XFree86/Cygwin, XFree86/Win32, etc. Harold Randall Schulz

- Tests for wincap.has_security in security.cc can cause some functions to
return success without providing the expected information.

Building DLLs to be loaded from Visual Basic
I have been asked to write some code to be integrated in a legacy Visual Basic application. This code should be available as a DLL. I have built the i686-pc-linux - i686-pc-cygwin cross compiler and used it with success to compile a few small executables. Reading mailing list archives I found contrasting thoughts as to whether and how DLLs built with the cygwin toolchain can be loaded from applications written in other languages. Messages span over more than five years, and there are references to ``you must do this for this cygwin version, but with the next...'' so I'm finding it difficult to pull together a present picture. My questions: - is anybody today successfully building DLLs with cygwin (not mingw32) and loading them from Visual Basic (or other languages)? - is documentation about the process available?

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: rxvt-2.7.10-1
rxvt is a terminal program that can be used instead of the windows command shell. It does not require an X server. Geoff Wing has recently released rxvt 2.7.10, a development version that disables features which provide security holes. He has also merged the cygwin specific code into the sourceforge rxvt project. This build has more options enabled in the configuration, including: --enable-frills --enable-keepscrolling --enable-old-selection --enable-utmp --enable-wtmp --enable-lastlog --enable-linespace 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. Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select Shell then click on the appropriate field until the above announced version number appears if it is not displayed already. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: cygwin at cygwin dot com . I would appreciate it 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.

Yes, an RPM-based cygwin is feasible -- but the last time I looked, most of the competitors said something like: First do (X) to install a basic cygwin system, and then use this tarball of rpm.exe, run rpm --initdb, then use rpm to install and/or update other parts of your system Where (X) is unpack a tarball or piggyback off setup.exe and only install these three packages or somesuch. While *feasible,* that's not really *practical* as a complete distribution. Further, none of the schemes out there were capable of updating the cygwin dll itself -- because rpm.exe uses it. Nor could they update any other in-use files. However, things may have changed over the years. I dunno, and I'm too lazy to check now. :-) Personally, I'd welcome an official setup-installable package providing rpm. Here's why: 1) we'd probably see a number of folks -- those who don't want to permanently maintain a package, but want to provide it for people to use -- who'd choose to pack their contribution as rpms. (Preferably, these ad-hoc rpms would go somewhere like /usr/local or /opt/ or ANYWHERE except /usr and /usr/X11R6/ ). 2) as these numbers grow, folks might begin wondering how to (and provding code for) help setup.exe and rpm coexist -- updating each other's databases, maybe even linking setup.exe against librpm, etc etc. Of course, this requires that someone really really smart figure out the best way to create a native port of librpm -- that can still figure out where /var/cache/rpm and /etc and suchlike are really located...

Hi, I'm using Cygwin for compiling the Xerces-C library for MinGW. My program used the gcc 3.2, and there were no problem, but now I use the gcc 3.2.2 for my program, so I need to recompile the Xerces-X library too. But the gcc 3.2.2 doesn't exist for Cygwin, so I compiled it with the source on Cygwin, with the options --enable-threads=posix --enable-shared --enable-languages=c,c++. The compilation seems to be passed very well, but now when I want to compile the Xerces-C library, at link time, I've got several undefined reference errors such as ___assert, _impure_ptr, ___w32_sharedptr_unexpected, etc. Many of these error are related with libstdc++.a. And when I look in this file, I see the reference to these functions. So where can this problem come from ? Is my gcc 3.2.2 badly compiled ? I've seen there is a gcc-mingw, and its configure file is very different from normal gcc configure file. Have I to compile it with a configure file from the gcc-mingw version ? Thanks in advance.

ls question
Hi, I'm working with a localized (german) Windows (XP) version and Cygwin 1.3.20-1 (in conjunction with rxvt). Doing the following: cd /cygdrive/c cd Profile cd Administrator ll | grep Start dr-xr-xr-x+ 3 Administ Kein0 1.

Limitarion ssh connections
Hi, Does anyone knows if there is a limitation of the number of simultaneuos ssh connections? I have the following problem: - I have more or less almost 100 servers that have a script that needs to copy a file to a Windows server that has cygwin sshd running.

How hard would this be?
Hey I have a little problem, I love linux, use it at home all the time, but until (only a matter of time right ;) the norwegian gov switched to linux on their desktop computers, I also have to use windows (unfortunatly). Now I have a swapable harddrive, what I would like to do, is to have it with a good encrypted filesystem, now on linux that would be quite easy, but it's not that easy to pull off in windows. What I was thinking was this, is it possible using cygwin, to mount a linux drive, with a linux filesystem, to a fake windows drive? Many windows programs does this, fake drives can't be that hard. I'd love to have a 5kb mount file on their computers, running that and entering a password to get my drive whenever I needed it. Now I know I could probably use cygwin and copy the files to the windows partition and back, but that would be VERY unpractical, and... if I remember correctly the computers are setup with NTFS, which means the files can't be properly wipe'ed afterwards.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: OpenSSH-3.6p1-1
I've updated the version of OpenSSH to 3.6p1-1. This is an official new release as of today. The Cygwin version is build from the vanilla sources. Official Release Message: OpenSSH 3.6 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. We would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued support to the project, especially those who contributed source and bought T-shirts or posters. We have a new design of T-shirt available, more info on http://www.openbsd.org/tshirts.html#18 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 3.5: * RSA blinding is now used by ssh(1), sshd(8) and ssh-agent(1). in order to avoid potential timing attacks against the RSA keys. Older versions of OpenSSH have been using RSA blinding in ssh-keysign(1) only. Please note that there is no evidence that the SSH protocol is vulnerable to the OpenSSL/TLS timing attack described in http://crypto.stanford.edu/~dabo/papers/ssl-timing.pdf * ssh-agent(1) optionally requires user confirmation if a key gets used, see '-c' in ssh-add(1). * sshd(8) now handles PermitRootLogin correctly when UsePrivilegeSeparation is enabled. * sshd(8) now removes X11 cookies when a session gets closed. * ssh-keysign(8) is disabled by default and only enabled if the new EnableSSHKeysign option is set in the global ssh_config(5) file. * ssh(1) and sshd(8) now handle 'kex guesses' correctly (key exchange guesses). * ssh(1) no longer overwrites SIG_IGN. This matches behaviour from rsh(1) and is used by backup tools. * setting ProxyCommand to 'none' disables the proxy feature, see ssh_config(5). * scp(1) supports add -1 and -2. * scp(1) supports bandwidth limiting. * sftp(1) displays a progressmeter. * sftp(1) has improved error handling for scripting. Checksums: == - MD5 (openssh-3.6p1.tar.gz) = 72ef1134d521cb6926c99256dad17fe0 - MD5 (openssh-3.6.tgz) = 758822b888c5c3f83a98045aef904254 Reporting Bugs: === - please read http://www.openssh.com/report.html and http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/ OpenSSH is brought to you by Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt, Kevin Steves, Damien Miller and Ben Lindstrom.

I also hope a sensible error message will be something that will make it very, very clear that, though it is (or should be) possible to install binary packages of another platform, it is impossible to run them, blablabla. My worry is for the mis-informed newbie, and their complaints in fat green print. And, of course, my worry is for the nerves of the RCM, which I can guarantee will blow a fuse when 100 newbies come to the list to complain that their RPM-installed Linux binaries aren't working - OK, so I forced an install, so what?

On Mon, 31 Mar 2003, Brian Warner wrote: Hi, I'm using Cygwin for compiling the Xerces-C library for MinGW. My program used the gcc 3.2, and there were no problem, but now I use the gcc 3.2.2 for my program, so I need to recompile the Xerces-X library too. But the gcc 3.2.2 doesn't exist for Cygwin, so I compiled it with the source on Cygwin, with the options --enable-threads=posix --enable-shared --enable-languages=c,c++. The compilation seems to be passed very well, but now when I want to compile the Xerces-C library, at link time, I've got several undefined reference errors such as ___assert, _impure_ptr, ___w32_sharedptr_unexpected, etc. Many of these error are related with libstdc++.a. And when I look in this file, I see the reference to these functions. So where can this problem come from ? Is my gcc 3.2.2 badly compiled ? I've seen there is a gcc-mingw, and its configure file is very different from normal gcc configure file. Have I to compile it with a configure file from the gcc-mingw version ? Thanks in advance. Regards, Fabrice Louis. Use g++ to link C++ programs. Otherwise, please post the exact compile and link commands, and read http://cygwin.com/bugs.html.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: perl-5.8.0-2
perl-5.8.0-2 release has been uploaded to sourceware -- it should be on the mirrors soon. THIS IS A REAL NEW PERL RELEASE THAT IS BINARY INCOMPATIBLE WITH ANY PREVIOUS PERL RELEASE. THIS MEANS THAT YOUR OLD EXTENSIONS (.xs code, those Perl modules requiring a C compiler) WILL NOT WORK AND WILL HAVE TO BE RECOMPILED. (Pure Perl modules should continue working.) INSTALLATION: = 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. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'perl' from the 'Interpreters' category. The perl manpages are in a separate package called perl_manpages in the category 'Doc'. Previous perl installed with setup.exe will be removed, but your custom modules won't be removed. See 'Modules' and 'Different Perl versions' section in the 'NOTES' below for details about possibilities of custom installation. DOWNLOAD: = Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. These mirrors already got the package, the others will probably have the latest version of this package fairly soon: In the US, ftp://planetmirror.com/pub/cygwin/ and ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ are reliable high bandwidth connection. QUESTIONS: == If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO: = To unsubscribe to the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the List-Unsubscribe: tag in the email header of this message. Send email to the address specified there. It will be in the format: [EMAIL PROTECTED] NOTES = README -- A short document, perl-5.8.0.README waits for you in /usr/doc/Cygwin. The output of 'perl -V' gives some infos about the compiletime and runtime settings of this perl binary. Setup.exe: -- Perl is in the category 'Interpreters'. setup.exe will remove perl-5.6.1-2 if you install perl-5.8.0-2. Modules: To get a summary of all the modules you installed for perl-5.6.1 you can use the CPAN module (before you install perl-5.8.0), just start it as usual ($ /usr/bin/cpan) and type in the CPAN shell: cpan autobundle to get a snapshot of 'your own' perl installation. To reinstall all the modules (after installing perl-5.8.0) type in the new CPAN shell: cpan install Bundle::Snapshot_2002_07_29_00 Different Perl versions: It is possible to use more than one perl. To achieve this you cannot use setup.exe since it will remove perl-5.6.1 before it installs perl-5.8.0, so you'll need to install perl-5.8.0 or perl-5.6.1 manually. From your scripts you can call the different perl versions now with perl5.6.1 or perl5.8.0, /usr/bin/perl will be the version you installed lastly (and also the scripts, so it is a good idea to install perl-5.8.0 after perl-5.6.1). PerlIO -- Some of my scripts stopped to work after upgrading. E.g. a wrapper calls a perl script that pipes mailtext to ssmtp. To make use of this script now, I needed to add 'export PERLIO=perlio' to the wrapper which calls the script. (See also the /usr/bin/cpan script which is a shell script now). Also perl generated output contains CRLF linebreaks if PERLIO=perlio or PERLIO=raw isn't set in the environment. From the official 'Perl 5.8.0 Release Announcement' --- - New IO Implementation: the new PerlIO implementation is both a portable stdio implementation (at the source code level) and a flexible new framework for richer I/O behaviours - Better Unicode Support: Unicode support has been much enhanced since 5.6, at all levels: - now supports Unicode 3.2.0 (5.6.1 supports 3.0.1) - at the language (and internals) level Unicode support is now more ubiquitous and robust - regular expressions now work with Unicode - support for non-Latin encodings (such as the various Chinese/Japanese/Korean encodings) through the Encode module - Better Numeric Accuracy: previous Perls relied on vendors' string-to-number and back routines which in some cases proved to be too much trust leading to nonportable and wrong behaviours - 64-bit support: 64-bit support is now considered to be mature -- if your platform supports 64-bit integers or address space, you can compile Perl to use those - Safe Signals: in previous versions of Perl signals could corrupt Perl's internal state - Many New Modules: Digest::MD5, File::Temp, Filter::Simple, libnet, List::Util, Memoize, MIME::Base64, Scalar::Util, Storable, Switch, Test::More, Test::Simple, Text::Balanced, Tie::File, ... Incompatibilities - BINARY INCOMPATIBLE: mainly because of the PerlIO introduction, Perl 5.8 is

The best thing would be to visit http://msdn.microsoft.com and read the library (the Win32 SDK). There have also been various attempts to provide very thin (usually partial) POSIX API layers on top of Win32 (unlike, say, Cygwin or UWin, which provide nearly complete POSIX emulation layers on top of Win32). Just google for Unix POSIX API Win32 or something like that.

RE: cygwin + apache + php problem
What user is apache running as? Does *that* user have read/execute permission on libphp4.dll? Also, the names of the groups are irrelevant -- internally, only the numeric IDs are handled, and the group names are there only for display purposes.

What does that + sign mean, and how do I set it? Or does that have anything to do with this problem? Thanks: Adam Adam, I was about to direct you to the ls man page, but reviewed both it and the info page, and couldn't find anything about the format of ls's output (after a cursory reading, that is). So, to answer your question, that + means there are extra ACLs (access control lists) associated with the file, that are more fine-grained than the regular UGO (user-group-others) permission model can express. To view and change those ACLs use the getfacl and setfacl utilities. For more information, getfacl --help and setfacl --help.

Re: Limitarion ssh connections
* ANTONIO.PICAZO (03-03-31 17:29 +0100) The cygwin verion is CYGWIN_NT5.0 No. cygcheck -c cygwin and the OS is Windows 2000. The ssh version is 3.5p1 cygcheck -c login openssh I have put the Maxstartups parameter to 1000 but it is not working. Please don't be that laconic: did you restart the sshd?
