write raw disk image to scsi in win98?

[Mike Edwards]

Hello list,

I understand that win98 imposes restrictions on physical drive access
however there must be a hack or workaround to accomplish what I need. I want
to write a raw disk image to my scsi zip. Trying to dd to //./d is blocked
by the OS. Is there a program that can accomplish this (possibly something
suitable in the cdr type tools?) via apsi?

Best regards,
Mike Edwards

Apache and rebase problem

[Frédéric Bazin]

Hello,
I have been using cygwin for 1 year, i just installed apache.
I don't know anything about apache.
I jsut started the server after installation without changing any 
configuration file. I got some error message which seems to be a rebase 
problem according to previous posting.
Anyone knows what should I do ?

Thx
Fred

I would consider a simple post-download check to be sufficient. If files are
being corrupted on a local drive, then the user has bigger problems than
Cygwin not working properly.

Yep, and I've just re-awakened this discussion over on cygwin-apps :-)

trouble cross-compiling with latest cygwin and popt.1.6.4-4

[Christophe Trophime]

I am trying to cross-compile some in-house code
to latest cygwin 1.8.22-1. I need to link the executables
with popt. So I rebuild popt using popt.1.6.4-src.tar.gz package.
Note that I manage to cross-compile with previous version 1.8.19.

I manage to get the libpopt.dll.a.
But now when I try to compile test programs provided in the popt package
I end up with undefined symbols in libpopt.dll.a:

fu01.o(.idata$3+0xc): undefined reference to
`__libs_libpopt_dll_a_iname'
nmth00.o(.idata$4+0x0): undefined reference to
`__nm__poptHelpOptions'
Info: resolving _poptHelpOptions by linking to __imp__poptHelpOptions
(auto-import)
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

If I link test*.c with cygpopt0.dll I get no error.

So my question is :
What has changed?
Do I have to link against cygxxx.dll or libxxx.dll.a?

I use binutils-20030307-1-src.tar.bz and gcc-3.2-3-src.tar.bz2 to get
the cross compiler tools (rebuild with cygwin 1.8.22, w32api 2.3-1)

I use the following linux rpm packages :
automake-1.6.3-1
autoconf-2.53-8 
libtool-1.4.3-5

It's not the problem, it's just how you are using the mirror :}.

Setup doesn't have a concept of a local mirror. It has a 'local package
dir', where it caches packages during install. The mirroring scripts
around create the same layout as setup uses for that local package dir.
Setup's needs are simple:
A setup.bz2/.ini on the mirror (ftp | http) site with correct paths and
MD5 detauls.
A local dir to work from.

the 'local' mode is designed for off-line reinstalls, *not* for
installing from a complete copy of the cygwin package site. The fact
that it allows that is a happy coincidence. I'm not about to
*deliberately* prevent that from working.

'local caches'. The whole point of a cache is that it's partial, and
transient. Your mirror is neither partial nor transient. I really don't
see the issue.

To make this effective, the whole local cache would need to be opaque.
That would defeat your use of a mirror as a local cache. I'm not
discounting the idea, but I don't think it would achieve your goals.

At this point, I think you should grab the source and/or join
[EMAIL PROTECTED] We'll undoubtably has out all of the options
shortly. For this specific suggestion, it has the downside of offering
an incorrect view of what you have available in your package cache.

Rob

I disagree. The local package cache is *not* a mirror, and a mirror is
*not* a local package cache.

WHEN setup starts maintaining the content of it's caches, folk that use
a mirroring script to populate their local package cache rather than to
create a local mirror will be horribly upset that setup deletes files.
I'd really rather avoid that headache (which involves potential data
loss) than encourage it.

Not at all. The packages won't be downloaded off the net, they'll come
from the local mirror. The local package cache for each client can be
deleted by a script if desired.

Most recent release

[Raymond Mardle]

Hi,
  I'm a long time user of Cygwin (love the product) and yesterday I
installed it on a computer that I personally use, for the first time in
a number of years. I don't know if I did anything wrong but after the
installation there were no less, page or vi executables (more was also
missing but I know about that from my first installation a few years
back). There might be other things missing but everything else I've
used has been there. Have these been dropped deliberately or is it a
problem?

  Thanks and keep up the good work

   Raymond

RE: Most recent release

[Vince Hoffman]

sounds like you have a (minor i hope) problem, less at least should have
installed. IIRC vi(m) isnt installed by default, less is and page i dont
think we have. If its been a few years then have a look through the packages
available though setup these days. You can also see whats available online
at http://cygwin.com/packages .

What if support were added for a "file://" mirror?
For a "file://" mirror,
* Setup could work just as with http:// or ftp://, and download the thing 
  to a local cache,
* no design changes would be needed - it's just another "protocol" for 
  downloading files,
* it would not require network admins to set up an FTP or HTTP server just 
  to have a local mirror (because most already have a file server 
  accessible through the network which is not HTTP or FTP, this can make a 
  real difference)

Just a thought - I'm not a lawyer, so you can safely ignore me
(although I am married with a lawyer.. does that help?)

OpenSSH PublicKeyAuthentication failure using cygrunsrv

[jim . a . davidson]

I have recently installed the latest Cygwin Version on my W2k test server
along with the latest
OpenSSH package.
I find that if I manually start the sshd daemon I can login ok using
PublicKeyAuthentication but when I create an NT Service using cygrunsrv that
this fails (although password authentication is ok).I suspect that this may
be a permissions problem but have run out of things to try.
Here is the debug output from the sshd server using the loopback address.
If anyone can offer any advice/suggestions,it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: swig-1.3.19-1

[Williams, Gerald S (Jerry)]

I've updated the version of SWIG to 1.3.19-1. Tarballs should
be available on the Cygwin mirrors shortly.

As per the SWIG web page (http://www.swig.org):

  SWIG (Simplified Wrapper Interface Generator) is a software
  development tool that connects programs written in C and C++
  with a variety of high-level programming languages. SWIG is
  primarily used with common scripting languages such as Perl,
  Python, Tcl/Tk, Ruby, Guile and MzScheme, however the list
  of supported languages also includes non-scripting languages
  such as Java and OCAML. SWIG is most commonly used to create
  high-level interpreted programming environments, user
  interfaces, and as a tool for testing and prototyping C/C++
  software. SWIG may be freely used, distributed, and modified
  for commercial and noncommercial use.

Version 1.3.19 is a regular development release of SWIG. More
information, including release notes and user documentation,
can be found in the directory /usr/doc/swig-1.3.19/.

***LATE-BREAKING NEWS***

One thing that won't be currently found in that directory is
an issue that has come up with the latest Cygwin release of
Perl (5.8.0), which uses 64-bit integers. This results in
some warnings of the following type when compiling the output
of SWIG:
  warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size

It is specifically caused by the SWIG_ConvertPtr() function,
which casts Perl type IV (now a long long) into a pointer in
several circumstances.

This warning does not appear to cause any test cases to fail.
This issue just came up and is being addressed by the SWIG
development community.

FWIW, I like this.  I'll try for a patch at some point unless someone

We are making some progress.
1) At this site, the acl goesn't give any access to Users
2) Because Rudiyanto is in Administrators, the owner is Administrators
3) But the acl doesn't give any access to Administrators either.
   1 and 3 are very unusual conditions
3) If setup had the 2nd ntsec patch I sent a while ago, the owner would
   be ryg and everything would be allright.
4) Still the basic problem remains: why does sh -c script.sh  fail although
   script.sh is rxw by the current user?
   I tried to reproduce it here, but everything is fine

/> cat sayhi
echo hi
/> getfacl sayhi
# file: sayhi
# owner: AdministratorS
# group: Users
user::---
user:PHumblet:rwx
group::---
mask:rwx

OK, It may have to do with your version of Windows
I need your help for some debugging

1) Edit /etc/passwd to
   a) remove the passwd of SYSTEM
   b) add a home directory for SYSTEM (e.g. /)
   c) add a shell for SYSTEM
   d) remove your password (uid 1003)
2) telnet localhost and login as SYSTEM
   It should let you in without password
   You are now running as SYSTEM, confirm with "id"
3) su yourself (uid 1003)
   If that fails: 
4) strace -o trace su yourself
   and send me the trace 
5) Put the SYSTEM password back if your machine is directly accessible.

perl 5.8.0-2 and WaitForMultipleObjects under win98

[Eric Blake]

Has anyone else seen this?  Ever since I upgraded from perl 5.6 to perl 
5.8.0-2, I am no longer able to run automake or autoconf on my Win98 
machine.  Both of those invoke perl, and then hang, printing messages 
such as:

406 [main] perl 614369 sync_with_child: WaitForMultipleObjects 
timed out
307776554 [main] perl 614369 sync_with_child: WaitForMultipleObjects 
timed out
620499865 [main] perl 614369 sync_with_child: WaitForMultipleObjects 
timed out

Once this has happened, I cannot kill the console that perl was invoked 
in, even after using Ctrl-C or kill -9 to stop autoconf.  I basically 
have to reboot the machine to recover.

cygcheck.out is attached; but I have all the latest software packages. 
It is tedious to use the setup to revert to perl 5.6, but when I do 
that, the bug disappears.

Please rerun the regress test using the -x option to exclude tests that
hang.  For example:

python -E -tt /usr/lib/python2.2/test/regrtest.py -l -x test_hotshot

It's a start.

Re: Postinstall failure: file not found

[Pierre A. Humblet]

OK, I've got it:

/> sh -c sayhi
hi
/> sh -c /sayhi
/sayhi: not found

With strace I saw that sh uses stat (which won't show rxw rights
in this case) and it behaves differently for absolute paths.

Possible fixes:
1) cd to /etc/postinstall before running the scripts and use relative paths
2) Put my 2nd ntsec patch in setup (I have asked Rudiyanto to test it)
3) Run the postinstall scripts with CYGWIN=nontsec, for boostrap.
   Note that scripts that rely on ntsec (chmod or chown) will need to turn 
   ntsec on.
4) patch sh.exe
5) ???

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: cURL 7.10.4

[Roth, Kevin P.]

cURL has been updated to version 7.10.4-1.

Along with a large number of bugfixes, this release includes=20
these changes:

7.10.3:
 o Added CURLOPT_PRIVATE and CURLINFO_PRIVATE
 o Added CURLOPT_HTTP200ALIASES
 o Added --create-dirs
 o The first few libcurl test cases have been added
 o configure --enable-maintainer-mode was added

7.10.4:
 o curl tool "clears" sensitive commands line args from ps output
 o no emacs local variables in the source files anymore, curl-style.el=20
   is the new file to use.
 o the "scratch buffer" only allocated when actually needed. This=20
   drasticly reduces the amount of memory used for a single handle.
 o started implementing the 'share' system (detailed elsewhere)
 o removed the strequal and strnequal macros from curl/curl.h
 o added CURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH / --location-trusted

See the following URLs for full release details, including bugfixes:
 7.10.3: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2003-01/0054.html

Well, technically, the above will not act as a "stream editor", as it
still edits (and saves) the files...  A stream editor would be something
like

cat $f | vim -b -c ":se t_ti= t_te= nosc |:sil %s/xygwin1.dll/cygwin1.dll/g|:%p |:q!" 
> new-$f

except I can't quite figure out how to turn off the display codes and
the "Vim: Reading from stdin..." message (perhaps others will know how).

Ah.  And it's not even _by_ a lawyer (are all judges supposed to be

Well, IANAL, but..

I prefer to say "with" and not "to" when talking about my wife because I 
consented in marying her - and so did she. It's a decision we took 
together, so I think "with" is more appropriate.

However, if you prefer: s/with/to/g :)

Don't have one - so we have the default "contract" under French law (she's 
French, I'm Dutch - that makes us Canadian.. doesn't it? ;)

We didn't get married by a lawyer, BTW - we got married by a politician, 
which is the way it works in France (the Mayor or one of his/her 
"associates").

WinXP username with spaces --> wmaker ko

[kaio]

i have my administrator user named with a space on WInXP.
cygwin installation is ok, but windowmaker don't install: seems that the
space generates a new parameter in installation commands!
in fact, wmaker installation creates a new dir in /home/ with the first half

Bug in GUI App WinMain Arguements

[BB]

I'm having a problem running a windows gui app with arguments from a mounted
directory if the Win32Path mounted to contains blanks. (i.e. mount -s -b
"C:/foo bar" "/foobar"). It's not a mount specific problem because it also
occurs if the directory has a space in it.  Since mkpasswd defaulted my home
directory to "/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/cygusr", I am assuming
Cygwin supports directories with spaces in them.  I have included a small
program that illustrates the bug.

By the way, I'm running on XP with the latest version of Cygwin newly
installed.

Also, according to the "Cygwin Users Guide", I have included the following
line in the code.
WinMainCRTStartup() { mainCRTStartup(); }
It doesnt seem to be called.  Is the User Guide correct? The same problem
occurs if I omit the line and use the "-e _mainCRTStartup" as suggested in
the User Guide.

Any suggestions?
BB.

Assuming the program listed below (prtcmdline.exe) is in
"/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/cygusr"...

$ cd ~
$ pwd
/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/cygusr
$ ./prtcmdline arg1 arg2 | tail -
default
and Settings\cygusr\prtcmdline.exe" arg1 arg2  << wrong
$ cp prtcmdline.exe /home/cygusr
$ /home/cygusr/prtcmdline arg1 arg2 | tail -
default
arg1 arg2   <
#include 

char *gstr = "default\r";

WinMainCRTStartup()
{
 gstr = "WinMainCRTStartup() called\r";
 mainCRTStartup();
}

int APIENTRY WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,
 HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
 LPSTR lpCmdLine,

Re: Bug in GUI App WinMain Arguements

I added a call to GetCommadLine() to see what it returns. It correctly
quotes the directory with spaces in it, so the caller of WinMain() should
easily be able to handle it.  Win95 does too.

>From "/home/cygusr"
GetCommandLine() returns [C:\cygwin\home\bkash\prtcmdline\prtcmdline.exe

Re: Postinstall failure: file not found

[Rudiyanto Gunawan]

From: "Pierre A. Humblet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Possible fixes:
1) cd to /etc/postinstall before running the scripts and use relative paths
2) Put my 2nd ntsec patch in setup (I have asked Rudiyanto to test it)
3) Run the postinstall scripts with CYGWIN=nontsec, for boostrap.
   Note that scripts that rely on ntsec (chmod or chown) will need to turn
   ntsec on.
4) patch sh.exe
5) ???

I tried your patched setup file and IT WORKS!!
I didn't try other fixes, so they also may work.

OK, It may have to do with your version of Windows
I need your help for some debugging

1) Edit /etc/passwd to
   a) remove the passwd of SYSTEM
   b) add a home directory for SYSTEM (e.g. /)
   c) add a shell for SYSTEM
   d) remove your password (uid 1003)
2) telnet localhost and login as SYSTEM
   It should let you in without password
   You are now running as SYSTEM, confirm with "id"
3) su yourself (uid 1003)
   If that fails: 
4) strace -o trace su yourself
   and send me the trace 
5) Put the SYSTEM password back if your machine is directly accessible.

Pierre

So on your machine, SYSTEM does not have SeCreateTokenPrivilege
That's unexpected. "id" was showing that you were running as SYSTEM

Does any one know about the peculiarities of "Windows.NET

Cygwin is a collection of many programs and scripts. Some of them don't
support spaces in directory names. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid using
spaces.

The default home dir is not in "Documents and Settings". Cygwin is noticing
that you have HOME set in your environment, and using that. You probably
don't want that. Why is HOME set?

This sounds like out-of-date info to me (but that's just a guess).

There seems to be a bug in Cygwin.
The following are unrelated to the bug:
- HOME directory
- "| tail -"
- WinMainCRTStartup
- gstr
- -mwindows

I have snipped your testcase appropriately.

You can easily show that the bug is in Cygwin, as it does not occur when the
testcase is compiled with -mno-cygwin.

RE: su questions

[Rodrigo Serra]

Pierre

Yes the account of the test is SYSTEM.

I search on msdn and found a tiny explanation of how privileges are needed
to run the SeCreateTokenPrivilege api.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/security/se
curity/authorization_constants.asp

The page show the privilege "Create a token object". upsss

I create a new user named init, and assigned privileges "Act as part of the
operating system", "Create a token object", "Log on as service", and
"Replace a process level token" and the ssh and su with no password prompt
work!!!

I not understand what happened. In the documentation of openssh mentioned
the necessary privileges and not indicate "Create a token object" but
indicate "Increase quotas". This privileges not exists in my Windows .net

Well now setguid works in my Windows .net box.

So on your machine, SYSTEM does not have SeCreateTokenPrivilege
That's unexpected. "id" was showing that you were running as SYSTEM
when you issued the su command. Correct?

Does any one know about the peculiarities of "Windows.NET
Server 2003" RC2 and how to enable this privilege?

Re: perl 5.8.0-2 and WaitForMultipleObjects under win98

[Nicholas Wourms]

Eric Blake wrote:
Has anyone else seen this?  Ever since I upgraded from perl 5.6 to perl 
5.8.0-2, I am no longer able to run automake or autoconf on my Win98

such as:

406 [main] perl 614369 sync_with_child: WaitForMultipleObjects timed 
out
307776554 [main] perl 614369 sync_with_child: WaitForMultipleObjects

620499865 [main] perl 614369 sync_with_child: WaitForMultipleObjects 
timed out

This is also happening on WinME when I try to run either of 
those programs with the new perl.  Except I get something 
along the lines of "failed to sync with child" instead of 
WaitForMultipleObjects timed out.  The net effect is the 
same as you reported, though.  I had to revert back to 5.6.1 
because it was so bad.  Rebasing does *not* work, nor do I 
believe this to be a rebasing issue.  I honestly think this 
is the result of fiddling with the stack size during the 
build (--stack,8388608) and non NT systems just don't like 
it.  I may be wrong...

Pierre, since you have WinME, are you seeing this as well?

Great. I don't think you need "Act as part of the operating system",
try removing it to increase security and let us know.
According to MS "Increase Quota" is needed for CreateProcessAsUser

but your box seems to be special.

It doesn't. If you want to access Linux ext[23] partitions under Windows you

I guess you still need help from us "short-tempered chits," eh?

There's no way to directly access a file system in Cygwin. Cygwin 
relies on Windows for file access. If you can find a file system driver 
for Windows that accesses one of the many Linux file system types, then 
Cygwin will have access to those file systems.

Without non-standard (non-Microsoft) file system drivers, you're 
limited to FAT, NTFS and SMB.


Thank You,
You're most welcome.

Ash ntsec woes [was: Re: Postinstall failure: file not found]

[Pierre A. Humblet]

Here is how sh behaves when executing a script with strange permissions
/> cat sayhi
echo hi
/> getfacl sayhi
# file: sayhi
# owner: AdministratorS
# group: Users
user::---
user:PHumblet:rwx
group::---
mask:rwx
other:---
/> sh -c sayhi<== OK
hi
/> sh -c /sayhi   <== Does not realize file is executable
/sayhi: not found 
/> setfacl -s u::---,g::---,o:--- sayhi
/> sh -c sayhi<== Goes ahead even though file is unreadable
/> echo $?
255

The reason why ash is inconsistent is that when it searches 
a command on PATH it does NOT check for executable or even
readable files.
There is code that used to do that on line 558 of exec.c,
but it is "#ifdef notdef".
On the other hand, absolute paths are checked with stat on lines
459 and 472 (partly in Cygwin specific code).

So ash is always too permissive or too strict when looking up
commands, although its builtin "test" is fine. 
The "just right" way in Cygwin is to use access(X_OK) on all
3 lines listed above.

Hmm...  If you are looking for network access then you should have said

No, now all but a minimal install are optional. There was a disagreement

not.  I don't think 'vim' was ever a candidate... doesn't everyone use 'cat'

Yeah but SMB requires linux to be booted, I assumed a linux-partition
on the computer that has booted Windows.. 

If you want to samba-access a linux-machine.. tried accessing
//computername/share[...], or mount it from windows..

RE: 1.3.22: TMPDIR Initialization

[Mark Moore]

Christopher,

I've read the http://cygwin.com/lists.html.  Here's the description for the
mailing list I posted to:


* cygwin-apps: a subscriber-only list for discussing packaging issues
regarding applications that are distributed with the Cygwin DLL. If you are
maintaining or volunteering to maintain one of the packages that is
distributed with the Cygwin net releases you should be subscribed to this
list. This list is intended for discussing solutions. It is not (with one
exception) for bug reports, "it would be nice", or "how do I" type of
musings. Use the main cygwin mailing list for that.


Here's the one exception: This mailing list is the preferred location for
design discussions and bug reports regarding cygwin's setup.exe program,
although such discussions may occur on the cygwin mailing list, as well. The
setup program is found in the cygwin-apps/setup directory. 



The passage "[cygwin-apps] is the preferred location for design discussions
and bug reports regarding cygwin's setup.exe program" prompted me to send
the post to the cygwin-apps forum.

If this is no longer the case, someone may want to change the instructions.

What you posted has nothing to do with setup.exe.

It is for Perl, regardless which port.

The perlbug tool is a script to submit a syntactically correct
bugreport to the perl bug-tracking system.  It needs a mailserver or
the report is written to a file which you can send to the bug-tracker.

Probably you need to do an export PERLIO=perlio before using it
because of this bug!

The report will be posted to the perl5-porters list so the developers
may comment on it and the pumpking will assign it to someone
responsible or resolve the problem himself.

Since I don't see the problem in the latest development version the
chances are good that this problem is known and already fixed in the
past.

Re: 1.3.22: TMPDIR Initialization

[Christopher Faylor]

This is not a bug report mailing list.
See: http://cygwin.com/lists.html

Please use the cygwin mailing list for this type of thing.

I've redirected replies there.
