[Sorry if you get this twice. Sent on Friday, resent on Sunday, but still not in archive. It seems my address was marked down as potential spammer. I guess that it is listed in a few too many address lists guarded by lesser operating systems.] Tetex-texmf is not a binary package, but there were some small fixes and doc has been moved to usr/share. I think we should have tetex verions in sync to avoid confusion. * increase pool size * add CWEBINPUTS to texmf.cnf * move doc to usr/share I've waited to bring tetex-bin/tetex-texmf versions in sync to allow more binary updates (we had -11 and -12) because tetex-texmf is a bit large.

importlibraries names
Hallo, the importlibraries are named libxyz.dll.a (or the symlinks to the actual libraries are). This is not a problem for the linker which will pick them up when -lxyz is specified. But I have some configuration scripts which are looking for libX11.a in the libdir which is pretty usual. Would it be a problem to create the symlinks to be libxyz.a instead of libxyz.dll.a in future releases or use the same names of the importlibraries as it was before, without version included? Sorry if this was already discussed before, Gerrit -- =^..^=

No. There are two types of import libs: libfoo.dll.a which results in linking against the apropriate DLL and libfoo.a which is the static lib. This scheme has been settled already lng ago and is obeyed by binutils. If the configuration script gets this wrong, the configuration script should be fixed.

Hmmm, since there are no .dll.a import libraries on linux, pretty much configure scripts are failing at this point. It works well as long as static and import libraries are provided as it is the case with the most packages, but if there are no static libraries, what is lost if there are no .dll.a files?

Windoze dialer starts when doing ssh to local machine
Hello, I have a Win98se machine running cygwin. After running startxwin.bat (no multiwindow - twm running) and typing in 'ssh computer' in a terminal window, the windows dialer appears. The windows machine is on a network with only Linux machines, and is set up with a fixed IP address and name. The windows machine currently uses a dialup connection for internet/email access, but is being converted to using them through ssh to a Linux machine (a process that may take a long while). The ssh works fine after closing the dialer. Is there a way to do the same function as /etc/resolve.conf to specify the domain first as the order for looking for the host?

A CALL FOR HELP
DR. YAKUBU THOMAS. DIRECTOR, ACCOUNTS AND AUDIT, NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION (N.N.P.C.) EMAIL:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear Sir, TRANSFER OF $28,600,000:00 (TWENTY-EIGHT MILLION SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS) ONLY. I got your contact from the Nigerian Chamber of Commerce Industry. Following this and other investigations resulting in a good recommendation. We have decided to contact you to help us with the legal Transfer of US$28,600,000.00 (Twenty-Eight Million Six hundred Thousand United States Dollars). The amount stated above resulted from an over-invoiced contract executed for the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (N.N.P.C.) for which the contractors have been fully paid. Because this money was part of the overall contract sum amounting to close to (US$100,000,000:00) that has been completed. The said amount has remained dormant and floating in our Apex Bank. Therefore, we will raise supplementary documents to enable us transfer into an account that is yet to be nominated. We need a foreign partner, because as civil servants, the code of conduct does not allow us to operate foreign bank accounts. Hence we solicit for your assistance, we are requesting you to provide us with the help for the safekeeping of this money until our arrival in your company to collect our share and decide on investment possibilities of this money. For your assistance in this transaction, we have unanimously agreed to offer you 30% of this money, 5% will be used in settling any incidental expenses that may arise and the remaining amount will be for us. To enable the prompt transfer of this money, kindly send to us your personal details, contact information bank details in full. We look forward to hearing from you and thanking you for your anticipated cooperation and consideration in the above subject matter.

Sincere request !
Dear friend, This letter may come to you as a surprise due to the fact that we have not yet met, but kindly consider the message, because, I am determined to live for posterity. I wish to plead with you to join me in not only serving humanity, but to also benefit in the process. This message could be strange but reality will definitely dawn on you, if you pay some attention to its contents. Please accept my sincere apologies in bringing this message to you; I have to say that I do not intend to cause you any personal pains or discomfort. I am Mr. Jonson Tubman, former Special Assistant to the Liberian President, Mr. Charles Taylor, who just stepped down from the office of the President due to rebel's insurgency who wants to overthrow his government. President Charles Taylor, in his bid to fend-off rebel insurgency, and since he could no longer trust the army generals, confidentially put in my care, the sum of $18,000,000.00 (eighteen million United States dollars) in one instance for the purpose of purchasing arms and ammunitions should the need arise. However, unfortunately, the need did not arise as he has gone on exile. I deposited the US$18 million in a trunk box in a secret location and just the two of us knew about it, and I could not get in touch with any arms dealer before the President was indicted in a war crime tribunal set up by the United Nations (UN). I have since held on to this trunk box, which I was able to transport out of Liberia with the aid of peace keeping soldiers under the guise of conveying my personal effects without anybody knowing, to a security deposit company. I am presently in Africa, where I now work as a consultant on inter-regional co-operation. I have borne the burden for too long. I do not want to keep the funds any longer, but I can never turn it over to the brutal and tyrannical rogue regime of Mr. Charles Taylor who is still committing all sorts of atrocities on the Liberian people. I am NOT soliciting for your help to wage a war against the regime, but to act as a foreign partner, to allow me transfer the funds to you, which you will in turn donate a portion of it as a humanitarian gesture to the Liberian people by purchasing such essential needs like blankets, milk and so on, water-pumping machines and agricultural equipment, from the money after deducting your expenses and the commission of 20%. Please note that I could have approached the Red Cross Society, but I changed my mind on that after calculating what they would deduct as commission, and also, after rationalizing the scandal that followed their mismanagement of the donations meant for the victims of the September 11th attack on the United States. Also, note that this offer will give you a double-edged advantage: 1. As the benefactor of the Liberian people and; 2. The commission you stand to earn. On getting a positive response from you, I will send to you the secret access codes to the funds and the security and vault company. Please note that confidentiality and honesty are fundamental rules in this transaction. Be assured that I am a reputable personality in this country and I am mindful of the legal implications of this transaction, as I intend taking care of all the legal documentations for a successful and hitch-free transaction. You will be expected to take delivery of this fund personally from the deposit company in Europe. I am therefore soliciting your assistance to have this money collected by you and/or facilitate the transfer into your nominated account(s). ***PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR CONFIDENTIALITY IN THIS TRANSACTION IS HIGHLY REQUIRED. I will give you the details of this transaction on receipt of your response to this proposal. Thank you very much for your time and understanding.

PRIVATE
FROM THE DESK OF: MR.CHUNG LI HANG SENG BANK LTD. DES VOEUX RD.BRANCH CENTRAL HONG KONG HONG KONG. I am Mr.Chung Li, credit officer of Hang Seng Bank Ltd,. I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On June 6, 1998, a British Oil consultant/ contractor with the Chinese Solid Minerals Corporation, Mr. Smith Lawrence made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$28,000,000.00 (Twenty-eight Million Dollars only) in my branch. Upon maturity,I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the Hong Kong Solid Minerals Corporation that Mr. Smith Lawrence died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace! his next of kin was fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Smith Lawrence did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$28,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to Laws of Hong Kong, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Smith Lawrence so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your ful! l names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/ administration in your favor for the transfer. A bank account in any part of the world that you will provide will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 85% for me and 15% for you. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the credit officer guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately to my email box. Upon your response, I shall then provide you w! ith more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. You should observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.

We discovered an abandoned sum of$15,000,000.00 (Fifteen million United States Dollars only) in an account that belongs to one of our foreign customers who died along with his entire family of a wife and two children in November 1997 in a Plane crash.Since we heard of his death, we have been expecting his next-of-kin to come over and put claims for his money as the heir, because we cannot release the fund from his account unless someone applies for claim as the next-of-kin to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines.Unfortunately, neither their family member nor distant relative has everappeared to claim the said fund. Upon this discovery, I and other officials in my department have agreed to make business with you and release the total amount into your account as the heir of the fund since no one came for it ordiscovered he maintained account with our bank, otherwise the fund will be returned to the banks treasury as unclaimed fund.We have agreed that our ratio of sharing will be as stated thus;20 % for you as foreign partner,75 % for us the officials in my department and 5 % for the settlement of all local and foreign expences incurred by us and you during the course of this business.Upon the successful completion of this transfer, I and one of my colleagues will come to your country and mind our share. It is from our 75 % we intend to import Agricultural Machineries into my country as a way of recycling the fund. To commence this transaction, we require you to immediately indicate your interest by a return e-mail and enclose your private contact telephone number, fax number full name and address and your designated bank coordinates to enable us file letter of claim to the appropriate departments for necessary approvals before the transfer can be made.Note also, this transaction must be kept STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL because of its nature.

Re-Urgent?
From: Engr David Isaac Sango Power House, Marina Lagos REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP- TRANSFER OF US$25,500,000.00 I am Engr David Isaac a director in the project and planning department of the National Electric Power Authority (NEPA), I head a seven man Tenders Board Committee in charge of contract award and Payment approvals. I came to know of you in my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential transaction, which involves the transfer of a huge sum of money to a foreign account. There were series of contracts executed by a consortium of Multinationals in the power industry in favour of the (NEPA) among which were; 1) The expansion of Power line network within Nigeria for power distribution. 2) Contract for Turn Around Maintenance (TAM) of various Gas Turbines in the country. The original value of of these contracts were deliberately over invoiced in the sum of Twenty Five million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$25,500,000.00) which has recently been approved and now ready to be transferred. However the companies that actually executed the aforementioned contract have been fully paid and the projects officially commissioned. Consequently, my colleagues and I are willing to transfer the total amount into your account for subsequent disbursement, since we as civil servants are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (Civil Service Laws) from opening and/or operating foreign accounts in our names. Needless to say, the trust reposed in you at this juncture is enormous. In return, we have agreed amongst ourselves to offer you 30% of the transferred sum, 5% shall be set aside for any incidental expenses during the course of this transaction, you will then be mandated to revert the balance to us in due course. You must however NOTE that this transaction is subject to the follwing terms and conditions; our conviction of your transparent honesty and dilligence, that you must accord this transaction with utmost confidentiality and secrecy. Modalities have been worked out at the highest levels of the Ministry of Finance, Central Bank of Nigeria and the Presidential Task Force on Contract Payment for the immediate remittance of the funds within 10 -14 working days subject to your satisfaction of the above terms. Our assurance is that your role shall be totally risk free . To accord this transaction the legality it deserves, and for mutual security of funds, the whole procedures shall be legally processed with your name or any company you may nominate as the bona fide final beneficiary. Once more, I want you to understand that having put in over 20years in the Civil Service of my country, I am very much averse to having my image and career dented. This matter should therefore be treated with utmost secrecy and urgency. Kindly expedite immediate action as we are well behind schedule to enable us include this transfer in the Third batch of the 2003 fiscal year contract payments.

Good News
Dear Sir/Madam, Forgive my indignation if this message comes to you as a surprise and if it might offend you without your prior consent and writing through this channel. I am Engr. Egbert Imomoh, The Chairman, of the Contract Award Committee (CAC) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). I got your contact through my countrys foreign trade mission after I was convinced in my mind that you or your company can act as the beneficiary of the USD17, 850,000.00 (seventeen Million eight hundred fifty thousand United States Dollars only) Which we intend to transfer into a foreign account. This fund was a residue of the over invoiced contract bills awarded by us for the TURN AROUND MAINTENANCE (TAM) of our Refineries in WARRI, PORT-HARCOURT and KADUNA and also the Supply of hard/soft wares, pharmaceuticals/medical items, light and heavy duty vehicles, apparels and other administrative logistics for the NNPC. Therefore, we have resolved to go into partnership with you to transfer the sum of US$17.850m into your account, by awarding your company an invented contract to the tune of US$17.850m. While we must carryout proper documentation to ensure that this is 100% risk-free for you and all the legal requirements are met. It is however agreed, as the account owner in this deal to allow you 20% of the entire sum as compensation, 70% will be held on trust for us while 10% will be used to defray any incidental charges and costs during the course of the transaction. This transaction will be successfully concluded within 14 Bank Working days. If you accord to us your unalloyed and due cooperation. Be rest assured that this proposal is 100% risk-free and please, keep this very confidential, as we are still civil servants in active service and are bounded by the civil service commission acts of Nigeria. This acts Prohibits Civil Servants (like us) from owning/operating foreign accounts. This is the only reason we contacted you and where you come into this transaction. Finally, I wish to assure you that all the machinery and logistics that will ensure a successful and smooth transfer have been put in place. Since we are going to use our connections in the Federal Ministry of Finance (FMF) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to effect the immediate transfer of the funds. Please endeavor to reply for a more detailed information. I anticipate your urgent response. Thank you and God bless you. Engr. Egbert Imomoh O.F.R.

RE: Failing to delete files that is hold by makegroup
Johan, Well, for one, why not use rm -rf instead? I'm not at all sure the -d flag is even implemented on Cygwin. Also, the value mkgroup_l_d for your group means that your /etc/group doesn't contain the group of the file owner. Please make sure it's up to date (see http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html). If the above still doesn't help, perhaps someone more knowledgeable in ntsec behavior can chime in.

Re: perl test fails
Gerrit
I've been away for a week, hence the delayed response.
Thanks for this and clearly my scriptlet was broken. I've now tried
both alternatives as suggested below. Both work perfectly under Linux.
Neither works under NT4.
Linux output:
script is executable
NT4 output:
I damn well am!
To eliminate error further, I'm now running just one copy of the script,
since the disk I use on my Linux box is mapped to the i: drive on the
NT4 box.
Strange it seems to work correctly for you but not for me.

Re: importlibraries names
[This isn't xfree-related. Redirected to [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Tue, Aug 26, 2003 at 04:15:50PM +0200, Gerrit P. Haase wrote: Would it be a problem to create the symlinks to be libxyz.a instead of libxyz.dll.a in future releases or use the same names of the importlibraries as it was before, without version included? No. There are two types of import libs: libfoo.dll.a which results in linking against the apropriate DLL and libfoo.a which is the static lib. This scheme has been settled already lng ago and is obeyed by binutils. If the configuration script gets this wrong, the configuration script should be fixed. Hmmm, since there are no .dll.a import libraries on linux, pretty much configure scripts are failing at this point. It works well as long as static and import libraries are provided as it is the case with the most packages, but if there are no static libraries, what is lost if there are no .dll.a files? Reliability? You never know from the name if it's a shared or a static import lib. The configuration script is just faulty. A configuration script should test if linking against -lfoo works, not if there's a library called libfoo.a. It's not exactly right to assume that all platforms are using this naming scheme. A platform might as well use foo.lib or something entirely different. Or, even simpler, as on Linux where libfoo.so is ok, too. Does the script test for .so files? If so, why not testing for .dll.a files as well?

Re: crypt function undeclared!!!
One thing that might help is issuing the failing compile command with a -E gcc flag instead of -c to get the result of the preprocessor (on stdout). You can then see if the declaration of crypt() actually makes it into the preprocessed source.

You only need the net connection for downloading the Cygwin packages needed in the installation. Once you have them on local disk or a CD, you can run the installation without any network connection. In principle it's very easy also if you only have access to a Linux computer with a CD burner or file sharing possibilities to your windows machine, just copy the necessary files from any Cygwin mirror (preserving the directory structure). The main practical problem is to selectively download only the packages you need, since a full copy may be to large to handle.
