Do we still have an emacs maintainer
There have now been three reports of problems with emacs in the cygwin and cygwin-xfree mailing lists and I haven't seen anyone stepping in to try to help. (Other than me, that is, but then I wasn't doing it right, apparently) Do we still have an active emacs maintainer? I don't see Joe's name in either the cygwin or the cygwin-apps mailing lists, which can't be a good sign. Joe Buehler are you still around? cgf
broken libguile.la file (libguile12-1.6.7-1)
I was trying to build autogen when I got to this: /bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link ccache gcc -Wl,-no-undefined -o autogen.exe -export-dynamic autogen-ag.o ../autoopts/libopts.la -lguile -lguile-ltdl -lcrypt -lm -lm libtool: link: cannot find the library `/home/mingw/cygwin/root/usr/lib/libguile-ltdl.la' This apparently comes from the following in /usr/lib/libguile.la: # Libraries that this one depends upon. dependency_libs=' /home/mingw/cygwin/root/usr/lib/libguile-ltdl.la -lcrypt' After changing that to /usr/bin/libguile-ltdl.la, I got this: /bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link ccache gcc -Wl,-no-undefined -o autogen.exe -export-dynamic autogen-ag.o ../autoopts/libopts.la -lguile -lguile-ltdl -lcrypt -lm -lm ccache gcc -Wl,-no-undefined -o autogen.exe autogen-ag.o -Wl,--export-dynamic ../autoopts/.libs/libopts.a /usr/lib/cygguile.dll.a /usr/lib/libguile-ltdl.dll.a -lcrypt gcc: /usr/lib/cygguile.dll.a: No such file or directory So I changed the 'library_names' line to 'libguile.dll.a' instead of 'cygguile.dll.a', and the link worked. I'm really not totally fluent in libtool but it does seem to me that these are guile packaging problems and not the fault of autogen, no? Brian
Re: Problems with ALT_GR and minimized multiwindow xterm
I forgot to mention that you need to change Windows keyboard layout under regional settings for the problem to apear. Using -kxblayout se is not enough. The easiest way is to just add the swedish layout and switch to that with the language bar while starting the cygwin session. That way you don't have to have se layout for you other sessions. /Regards Dan On 07/06/05 14:57 +0200, Alexander Gottwald wrote: On Tue, 7 Jun 2005, Dan Bruhn wrote: Hi Problem: If i start a xterm from a already existing xterm and minimize either of them keys in the still open xterm starts behaving strange.

Re: read bug in Cygwin xterm window only
Peter Farley wrote: Hi all, The following program demonstrates what looks to me like a bug in the read function in an xterm (as opposed to a Cygwin console window). To run the test, compile with: gcc -g -o xtermbug.exe xtermbug.c When you run it in a console window, you can enter normal keyboard characters, then a return to see cmdline=what you typed. Press the Esc key to exit the program. Unfortunately I'm seeing exactly the same problem too, and have so for some time. I've also noticed that a read() giving a particular length will ignore the length field and actually read more data in some cases. I haven't seen these problems under a normal console, nor under xterm on other operating systems (e.g. Linux). When run in an xterm window, the first keypress causes this behavior: 1. Select returns with rc = 0 and readset set to indicate that a key was received 2. read returns with kblen = 1 and kbbuf[0] = '\0' 3. (1) and (2) repeat forever. I put in a maxdbg parameter and terminate the program after 5 occurrences of this loop. This problem was first detected trying to run a copy of the hercules IBM mainframe emulator in a Cygwin xterm window. The code below is extracted and minimalized as much as possible from the hercules keyboard input routine. Peter Farley

make -v gives GNU Make 3.80. sh -v doesn't seem to do anything--
the ash man page doesn't mention a verbose or debugging mode.
cygcheck -f /bin/sh reports ash-20040127-1. cygcheck -f /bin/make
reports ash-20040127-1. make --debug doesn't tell anything
interesting. I'm using cygwin1.dll from the cygwin1-20050609.dll.bz2
snapshot. (I wasn't sure if you meant -v for version numbers
or verbose output; I hope what you wanted is somewhere in there.)
I've tried testing this with a pure shell script and I can't reproduce
the problem there. If the cause lies with GNU make, it's pretty
subtle, since the Electric Cloud make program gets the same results.
I'm badly out of practice with the classic Bourne shell, and I
haven't worked with ash before, so I may be missing something basic.
Using this makefile:
---
TESTS = foo bar baz
all:
@i=0; \
eval ; \
for tool in $(TESTS); do \
echo results_$${tool}=$$i; \
eval results_$${tool}=$$i; \
i=`expr $$i + 1`; \
done; \
echo results_foo = $$results_foo; \
echo results_bar = $$results_bar; \
echo results_baz = $$results_baz; \
for tool in $(TESTS); do \
eval result=\$$results_$$tool; \
echo results_$$tool = $$result;\
if [ $${result} -ne 0 ] ; then \
exit $$result; \
fi; \
done;
---
with the 'eval ' line present I get:
fulgurite-xpdbg% make -f /u/cygwin/src/winsup/testsuite/iterate.mak
results_foo=0
results_bar=1
results_baz=2
results_foo = 0
results_bar = 1
results_baz = 2
results_foo = 0
results_bar = 1
make: *** [all] Error 1
Delete the line with 'eval ' and:
fulgurite-xpdbg% make -f /u/cygwin/src/winsup/testsuite/iterate.mak
results_foo=0
results_bar=1
results_baz=2
results_foo =
results_bar = 1
results_baz = 2
results_foo =
[: 0: unknown operand
results_bar = 1
make: *** [all] Error 1
This shell script, on the other hand, works just fine:
---

eval results_${tool}=$i; \

Subversion perl bindings - where do they live?
Hi, I have perl, swig, subversion and subversion-dev installed via cygwin. I am finding that I need to use some very simple subversion client capabilities from inside of a perl script. Looking around on google I see multiple references to subversion perl bindings existing as part of the subversion main package, and one mailing list post from some time ago saying they hoped to have the perl bindings in subversion soon. Looking some further I find that the Subversion documentation includes a section named using languages other than C++: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/svn-book.html#svn-ch-8-sect-2.3 Which describes the SWIG bindings used by perl as being located in subversion/bindings/swig, and gives some python examples of how the bindings should be used. Unfortunately no such directory as subversion/bindings/swig appears to exist on my system as far as I can tell. (I also am not quite sure of how the python bindings would translate to perl (would from svn import fs become use SVN::fs? or what?) but that's something of a secondary concern at this point.) So my questions are: 1. Where exactly on my system, or in what as-yet-uninstalled cygwin package, would I find the subversion swig bindings, assuming Cygwin installs them? (And are there any perl examples of using said subversion swig bindings anywhere?) 2. If Cygwin does not install the Subversion perl bindings, then does anyone know, what must I do to get them in place? Can I install them independently of subversion itself? Do I need to reinstall the entire subversion client from source? Do I need to uninstall cygwin's subversion package before I install my own? Thanks much, I appreciate it. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Directory c:\%USERPROFILE% created
Hello, i was wandering about strange folders created in the root directory of my Cygwin-Enhanced PCs and found out that everytime i start installer programs from within a cygwin shell, a folder called %USERPROFILE% is created in the base directory of the pc's harddisk. I found out that if i start a command-shell from windows there is an environment variable called %USERPROFILE% which points to the current logged in users directory. In cygwin-shells this variable is missing. So everytime a windows-process tries to access the current users profile-dir (to store some ini's or whatever), the variable does not resolve but will be taken literal, so this directory will be created. In other words: %USERPROFILE% does not point to c:\WINNT\Profiles\username, resp. %SystemRoot%\Profiles\username like it should. The effect is that the installer will fail, which is very bad if running silent setups. To avoid this i've set $USERPROFILE to the appropriate profile-directory for the users in his .profile in cygwin's /home/username. This seems to work, but do i make something wrong ? Is there a better way to do this ? Are there any environment-variables or programs to resolve the current users Windows-Profile-Directory, instead of setting it literally in .profile ?

Of course we would be glad to have more people working on the DLL (and sign the copyright assignment, sigh), but what you wrote sounds somewhat like a special solution which requires lots of new if (is_ntfs) tests, roughly. Sure it only works on file systems supporting that (which is NTFS, basically), but the code already contains way too many different routes due to OS/FS differences. Our vague ideas how to implement this are more along the lines of always use the fooW (on Win32 level) or _U (on NT level) functions and drop back to something else only on 9x, if necessary. This would also automatically cover the managed mounts in terms of path length.

I can use a few pattern matching tools to filter out the appropriate domain users and modify /etc/passwd accordingly. Obviously mkpasswd needs to be updated in order to produce correct home directory entries (possibly a unique format for Windows XP?). The information returned by Windows is used unchanged. There should be no need for some special handling. In this case mkpasswd isn't using any information returned by Windows other than the homeroot prefix. The full command ( for reference ), is mkpasswd -d -l -p $(cygpath -H) /etc/passwd mkpasswd -d -l is returning information on two different users: the local TJHart and CORPORATE\TJHart. The -p option overwrites any directories returned by Windows. mkpasswd has no intelligence built in. It just appends the user name to the path given by -p, nothing else. If you leave out the -p option you'll get the home directory return by the Windows function NetUserEnum. If there hasn't been stored any homedir in the SAM, you get /home/username. If the NetUserEnum function doesn't return the correct path, there's no way to get what you want which I'm aware of. I don't know how NT generates different paths for the same user name in different Domains. If you need a more complex layout, either manipulate the resulting passwd file by hand or consider to write a patch to mkpasswd.

Re: passwd group file problems ?
Hi, I guess the main question that I'm asking from the below is : on a clean system without cygwin where setup.exe is run, after the files have been installed to c:\cygwin (or wherever), how do I run the process that binds/registers these files into a working cygwin system ? (i.e. the process that deals with mount points, security files and hard / symbolic links). this process is obviously run every time that setup.exe is run, so is this procedure a secret locked in setup.exe which, instead of a well known process that anyone can run ?

The problem is that (in pthread.h) PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT is .._NORMAL on linux, the system was originally written for. It works but eventually dies when it runs out of threads or mutexes or something since it can't recycle. PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT is .._ERRORCHECK on cygwin. It would be painful to add a whole section to create an attribute structure just to set this to be the same as linux. If you look at the test case you will see a line that says mutex=PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER; This causes the program to use the default (ERRORCHECK) mutex. To get a normal mutex, you can use mutex=PTHREAD_NORMAL_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP; However, in the test case when NORMAL is used, the mutex never gets unlocked because the signal SIG_CHLD doesn't get to the parent. FWIW, I've changed the default for PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER to PTHREAD_NORMAL_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP in CVS. Last night I also tried to implement handling for interrupting mutexes based on Corinna's explanation of what your patch did.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: binutils-20050608-1
I've made a new version of binutils available for installation. This version is a refresh from CVS and contains a fix for a long-standing problem with executable files which caused debugging information to be loaded into memory rather than just referenced from disk as intended. This problem indirectly caused the latest CVS version of cygwin to be unstrippable. For a brief description of this package, and a listing of the files it contains, see http://cygwin.com/packages/binutils . The project web page has more details: http://sourceware.org/binutils/ . 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.

On Thu, 9 Jun 2005, Roy Wiseman wrote: Hello, I work in a corporate environment, with very limited internet access, and I want to distribute cygwin to some sysadmins who can make good use of these tools. I cannot run the cygwin setup across the internet, and I do not want to download all the binaries to put on the server. We want to package a specific subset of cygwin that we require into a package that we can distribute to sysadmins. I've done this and it works very well, I would be a bit cautious in this situation. It's true that most Cygwin programs will work just fine when copied from machine to machine. However, some other things, specifically hard and symbolic links, are created during the postinstall phase, and may be specific to the installation machine. Unless the other machines have exactly the same configuration, there may be inconsistencies in the copied installation. You'll also need to replicate the mounts, which I suspect is your current problem anyway. Run 'mount -m /mounts.bat' on the machine you use as the template installation, and run /mounts.bat after copying. And you will need to regenerate /etc/passwd and /etc/group (since that information is also machine-specific). You can add the two commands reported (mkpasswd and mkgroup) to the end of /mounts.bat. except for the passwd and group security information generation which is tied to the machine the install was done on, and I have no idea how to change this. The message I get on running cygwin.bat on any other system but the one where it is installed is : C:\cygwincygwin Your group is currently mkpasswd. This indicates that the /etc/passwd (and possibly /etc/group) files should be rebuilt. See the man pages for mkpasswd and mkgroup then, for example, run mkpasswd -l [-d] /etc/passwd mkgroup -l [-d] /etc/group Note that the -d switch is necessary for domain users. I expect this is to do with the passwd and group files from what I know of unix, and these instructions have something to do with the solution, but I have tried these commands in every possible way that I can think of, but cannot get this error to disappear and properly register cygwin for the user. I've tried googling and all the commands I can think of, but I'm stumped. Please, can someone tell me how to correct this in the cygwin system so that I can distribute it to the sysadmins that would like to use these excellent tools? It would have been better had you followed the instructions in the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html and attached the output of cygcheck -svr on the failing system. Without that information, the above guess (missing mounts) is all I can offer. Hi Igor, those mount commands don't seem to do much for this situation. same problems. Have you *run* /mounts.bat on the target machine? It's unclear whether your cygcheck output is from the original installation machine or the new machine. Regardless, it shows a few unrelated problems with the machine. First off, you *do* have multiple Cygwin1.dll's in your path -- very nasty, and likely to bite you at some point soon. Secondly, some application (presumably Norton Ghost) has inserted a quoted string into your PATH, which confuses Cygwin. Remove the quotes from the PATH. Also, as your cygcheck output shows, you are in a domain. It's quite possible that the domain controller really is taking more than 30 minutes to return the set of users and groups (for large domains). The -u/-g options of mkpasswd/mkgroup respectively may be helpful. you mention the hard and symbolic links, are created during the postinstall phase. this is very interesting, are there no commands to make that process rerun outside of the postinstall phase ? Sure, they're just scripts. One potential problem is that some postinstall scripts create files, and don't modify them once those files are created. They rely on a pristine installation to get the files right. So, if you have such files on the source machine, they may not be correct on the target machine... I've attached my cygcheck.out file here. my current situation is : - mkpasswd (with -l and/or -d) does nothing, this command hangs for over 30 minutes, and does nothing I'm a bit skeptical about mkpasswd -l alone taking 30 minutes. Does net user hang also? If mkpasswd hangs only with -d, try (mkpasswd -l -c; mkpasswd -d -u nlwiso) /etc/passwd. - mkgroup (with -l and/or -d) does nothing, this command hangs for over 30 minutes, and does nothing This one's harder, as you'll need to know which groups you're a member of.

At this point, I'd just like to say ${DAVEK_ANTI_NORTON_RANT}, and
furthermore,
${DAVEK_ANTI_SYMANTEC_RANT:-${DAVEK_ANTI_NORTON_RANT//NORTON/SYMANTEC}},
while of course it is also true that
${DAVEK_ANTI_MCAFEE_RANT:-${DAVEK_ANTI_SYMANTEC_RANT//SYMANTEC/MCAFEE}}.
Also, as your cygcheck output shows, you are in a domain. It's quite
possible that the domain controller really is taking more than 30 minutes
to return the set of users and groups (for large domains). The -u/-g
options of mkpasswd/mkgroup respectively may be helpful.
Or indeed running it in such a way that the redirection doesn't prevent
you from seeing what's going on, such as:
mkpasswd -d -l | tee /etc/passwd
which will let you see it spitting out entries one-by-one as the server
sends responses.
You could try running net user nlwiso to find out the group membership
(though I'm not certain how to ensure that the user being queried is
EMEA\nlwiso);
net user EMEA\nlwiso. It's pretty universal in 'doze that wherever you
can put a username, you can put a DOMAIN\user string instead.

RE: Unicode in filenames support? (FAQ update needed)
Of course we would be glad to have more people working on the DLL (and sign the copyright assignment, sigh), Yes, the assignment was/is a hurdle for me. It turns out to be much easier to release something into the public domain (at least at my company), thus my approach. I had actually made some progress with the assignment, but it went back to ground zero when my old group was disbanded. but what you wrote sounds somewhat like a special solution which requires lots of new if (is_ntfs) tests, roughly. Sort of, although I approached it as a set of services that could replace Windows file operations with extended versions that could be selected dynamically. I had come up with the following list of functions to replace (which perhaps might be of some use to you): CopyFile CopyFileEx CreateDirectory CreateDirectoryEx CreateFile DeleteFile FindFirstChangeNotification FindFirstFile FindFirstFileEx GetBinaryType GetFileAttributes GetFileAttributesEx GetFullPathName GetLongPathName GetShortPathName MoveFile MoveFileEx MoveFileWithProgress RemoveDirectory ReplaceFile SearchPath SetCurrentDirectory SetFileAttributes SetFileSecurity gsw -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

I did ask the Red Hat lawyer if accepting public domain sources was ok and he said Yes, but... The problem is that you still have to verify that the sources are truly public domain and how do you do that without getting a disclaimer from a person's employer? I truly hate all of this assignment stuff that is required for contributions to FSF programs and Cygwin. I think it's time for someone to come up with an online way to do this. I asked a (very) technically savvy lawyer acquaintance about this once and he said Hmm... but he never came up with anything workable... cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

RE: passwd group file problems ?
Thanks for the insults D A V E . K O R N You say you are offended, and that I am not in control of my own actions (obviously highly offensive, patronising and insulting statements). I am in control of my own actions. You of course have answers that I would like, and yet you dangle them at me in effect with the maturity of a child it seems. I will not get my answers, you will jealously guard them to prove the point about the Linux community being closed and secret and you have insulted me repeatedly here, because you can. You tell me to DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL, and yet I am not your dog to tell what to do. You treat people with an unbelievable level of disrespect. This is the kind of touch-paper anger that I would expect from a child, not an adult. And yet, of course, as I said, you have answers to something that I would like to know, so you choose to take offence at anything and demean anyone around you that happens to be nearby. by anything, let me explain that : if I made the mistake once of doing a reply all, then the damage was done, that's simplistic logic that a 6 year old child could understand right ? and so repeating the mistake has not affected you in anyway whatsoever (anymore than my original mistake), and that's clear, obvious, logical and undeniable right ? and yet you SCREAM IN CAPITALS, TELLING ME THAT I MUST NOT REPLY and patronise and offend wildly without any concern as you feel that because you have answers to cygwin questions you somehow DEMAND respect from everyone around you. the logic I point out above is undeniable, and yet you act as if I have fncked your mother ... get a grip, I neither fncked your mother or offended you in any way whatsoever ... you *choose* to be offended at anything, and in this case, I did not a single thing to offend you (please read the logical points that I make above for my reasoning). and to continue your incredibly offensive email, you said something like you come across as if you don't pay the slightest attention bla bla something, rant, moan, whine ... that does not follow in the slightest right ??? it takes a real leap of incoherent ranting and unbelievable disrespect for other people to come to that conclusion. i sent an email, that's all, polite, friendly, normal. I do pay attention to others, and I respect everyone I work with, family, freinds, etc. and I even respected you, until you chose to start insulting me for no reason (by no reason, try reading the points of logic that I make above, all completely undeniable). do you know the word tantrum in the english language ? i suspect that you have heard people refering to you with this word often in your life ... thanks for the insults and the rant mate, i would be offended if I could actually see a logical basis behind your rant (by logic, see above). so I made a mistake, you are RIGHT, I made a mistake, I admit it ... i didn't offend you, I didn't insult you, I didn't disrespect you, and I did not do ANY of the things that you accuse me of. so you hold your secret geek-knowledge from me, push someone away from Cygwin, that was really enjoying exploring it, keep that knowledge for yourself and alienate everyone and anyone that doesn't do EXACTLY WHAT YOU TELL THEM TO DO, cos Linux/cygwin is not for polite adults, you want me to fnck off and DO NOT REPLY and all that. ok, so you win, another person who wants nothing to do with rude little fat boys with no girlfriends, all cos I made a mistake, well what a great advert for decent maturity you are ! come and use linux/cygwin, and meet ANGRY ANGRY RANTY ILLOGICAL (see points above) PEOPLE (maybe your girlfriend/boyfriend cheated on you and ran off with a friend leaving you with all this anger, I don't know, all I know if that you insult me without any logic (see points above).

bash page fault on Win98SE when running non-Cygwin programs
When running some non-Cygwin programs from bash (seems to be mostly a problem with 16-bit programs, but also some 32-bit programs), bash gets an invalid page fault in KERNEL32.DLL and pops up a fault dialog.

likely to bite you at some point soon. Secondly, some application
(presumably Norton Ghost) has inserted a quoted string into your
PATH, which confuses Cygwin. Remove the quotes from the PATH.
At this point, I'd just like to say ${DAVEK_ANTI_NORTON_RANT}, and
furthermore,
${DAVEK_ANTI_SYMANTEC_RANT:-${DAVEK_ANTI_NORTON_RANT//NORTON/SYMANTEC}},
while of course it is also true that
${DAVEK_ANTI_MCAFEE_RANT:-${DAVEK_ANTI_SYMANTEC_RANT//SYMANTEC/MCAFEE}}.
At this point, Dave, it might pay for you to actually create a web page
with the rants and post links... :-p
Also, as your cygcheck output shows, you are in a domain. It's
quite possible that the domain controller really is taking more than
30 minutes to return the set of users and groups (for large
domains). The -u/-g options of mkpasswd/mkgroup respectively
may be helpful.
Or indeed running it in such a way that the redirection doesn't
prevent you from seeing what's going on, such as:
mkpasswd -d -l | tee /etc/passwd
which will let you see it spitting out entries one-by-one as the
server sends responses.
Roy, the name after the tee command is, of course, the name of the file
you'll be overwriting. In any case, you might want to first get a command
running (without any redirection or pipes), and then redirect it in the
way I showed you.
You could try running net user nlwiso to find out the group
membership (though I'm not certain how to ensure that the user being
queried is EMEA\nlwiso);
net user EMEA\nlwiso. It's pretty universal in 'doze that
wherever you can put a username, you can put a DOMAIN\user string
instead.
Dave, you can be sure I've tried the obvious before posting. It didn't
work for me. Perhaps the local domain (i.e., the current computer)
isn't handled in the same way.
I agree that Symantec are a bit of satanic
corporation, but ... well, Ghost2003 is actually very
impressive most of the time (apart from breaking
cygwin which is a big problem of course).
It would have broken other apps as well, just not in such an obviously
detectable way.
ok, I've fixed symantec by taking out the 2 in the
path and I fixed the cygwin1.dll (it was a copy of
testdisk that was in there. testdisk carries it's own
old version of cygwin1.dll around with it) then I did
the mkpasswd and mkgroup stuff as you suggested ...
and this is what I got, but I've no idea what tee it
telling me (now I'm on my home system which is non
domain, my office ABN Amro system is all the
EMEA\nlwiso stuff).
tee isn't telling you anything, you're seeing the output of mkpasswd
(or mkgroup, as the case may be).
This is a lot confusing to me, do you understand this output ?
See http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/ntsec.html.
oh, after this, I still get the same error unfortunately.
C:\cygwincygwin
Your group is currently mkpasswd. This indicates that
the /etc/passwd (and possibly /etc/group) files should
be rebuilt.
See the man pages for mkpasswd and mkgroup then, for
example, run
mkpasswd -l [-d] /etc/passwd
mkgroup -l [-d] /etc/group
Note that the -d switch is necessary for domain users.
The commands you quoted will have destroyed your /etc/passwd completely.
Try re-running the commands I gave you.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~
$ mkpasswd -d -l | tee /etc/passwd
mkpasswd (731): [2453] Could not find domain controller for this domain.
This is a problem. Are you on the network when you run this command? If
not, the delay may be mkpasswd waiting for domain controller connections
to time out.
Did you run mkpasswd -c -l, like I told you?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~
$ mkpasswd -l | tee /etc/passwd
This just overwrote /etc/passwd generated in the previous run.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~
$ mkgroup -l | tee /etc/passwd
Ditto, and this time it's with the output of mkgroup.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~
$ mkgroup -l -d | tee /etc/passwd
Cannot get PDC, code = 2453
As you see, the primary domain controller is inaccessible. Do you need to
be on a VPN or something to log in to the domain?

The problem is that (in pthread.h) PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT is .._NORMAL on linux, the system was originally written for. It works but eventually dies when it runs out of threads or mutexes or something since it can't recycle. PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT is .._ERRORCHECK on cygwin. It would be painful to add a whole section to create an attribute structure just to set this to be the same as linux. If you look at the test case you will see a line that says mutex=PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER; This causes the program to use the default (ERRORCHECK) mutex. To get a normal mutex, you can use mutex=PTHREAD_NORMAL_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP; However, in the test case when NORMAL is used, the mutex never gets unlocked because the signal SIG_CHLD doesn't get to the parent. FWIW, I've changed the default for PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER to PTHREAD_NORMAL_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP in CVS. Last night I also tried to implement handling for interrupting mutexes based on Corinna's explanation of what your patch did. Shouldn't PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT be PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL? Both of these changes are in the current snapshot. And the pthread_mutex_lock is still waiting forever...doesn't process the signal. Looking at the code I think that the pthread_mutex::_lock function should be using the cancelable_wait routine in place of the WaitForSingleObject. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Enjoy, Peter --- A Møøse once bit my sister -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
RE: passwd group file problems ?
thanks Igor, and also Dave, I totally appreciate both of your time on this (can't say I liked the insult much Dave, but my mistake was accidental you know. Maybe it's a Scottish thing that we treat people with respect until they disrespect us, I guess we don't think we should have to put up with insults from anyone, ... we're stubborn that way !). I'll work through your explanations tomorrow Igor. I had no idea there was so much going on under cygwin, I kind of assumed that the bunch-of-files and configuration information sat in the cygwin folder, until at runtime when the bash shell was invoked, the cygwin dll somehow bound all the files together into a workable system at that point. clearly a lot more going on there, but very interesting to see how it all works together. cheers, roy. ___ How much free photo storage do you get?

Does anyone know if this ever got further than the idea phase? I use a laptop in a lot of different places and the name servers vary from place to place, depending on the ISP. I could just hard code the resolv.conf, but it would be helpful to see the data my clients are seeing without having to redo resolv.conf each time.

Re: Login Something diff since cygwin 1.5.15-1 release - could it be security changes that were made
At 02:07 PM 6/9/2005, you wrote: Larry Hall wrote: Perhaps you added one or more of these one time when you wanted to try this with your account and didn't remove them all later. sshd kept jumping to mind and after a google search of cygwin.com it seems to hold that at one time this was the method (and may still be - just not using your personal account) of getting ssh/sshd to work. Those searches also show me getting help getting sshd working (although I do not mention those settings being changed) and then finally getting it working (through the help of Max and Corinna) using SYSTEM. The OpenSSH server, sshd, typically runs as a service. To support switching to a new user, the account the service runs as must have the previously listed privileges. SYSTEM has all of them by default on NT/W2K/XP. W2K3's SYSTEM doesn't, so you have to create a new account that has these permissions and run the sshd service under that account (or modify an existing one if you're comfortable with that option). This all has been automated by the /bin/ssh-host-config script for some time though, including creating a special 'sshd_server' account for W2K3 to run the sshd service. At one time, many of these steps did need to be performed manually, though I can't ever remember needing to create or modify an existing account to run the sshd service on NT/W2K/XP. There was certainly some docuementation of these requirements in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh-README and /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/inetutils-1.3.2.README. You may have gotten some ideas from these documents at some point in time. And there was certainly some discussion of how to set up such an account, be it your own or a new one, on the list from time to time. You may have even had someone suggest to you to add these permissions (it would have been a reasonable suggestion if you mentioned that you had installed the service to run with your user account). But, like I said, making these changes is not a requirement for running sshd as a service and has never been a requirement on NT/W2K/XP AFAIR. So if you don't have a use for such privileges on your account, you can remove them if you like. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

alex hardy wrote: Every time I use the ./config comand it does not work. Huh? This is way too vague to answer. 1. ./config is not a standard command, do you mean ./configure? 2. What software (exact version) are you trying to configure/build? 3. What is the exact command that you are typing? 4. What is the exact error that you get? 5. What is your exact system setup (cygcheck -srv output) All of this is outlined at http://cygwin.com/problems.html which you seriously need to read. Also re openssl where can I find the sign.sh file It's not part of openssl. It's included with mod_ssl though, and the first few hits for a google search of openssl sign.sh will turn up instructions for how to obtain and use it. Please consult google.

However, it was NTFS-specific and Cygwin went a different route (which has path length limitations, but I digress). And, Joshua could I get a FAQ entry about this, too? This has got to be at least the fifth time that someone has felt compelled to make the observation that the current implementation of managed mode has path length limitations. Maybe a managed mode section would be useful in general.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: binutils-20050608-2
I've made a new version of binutils available for installation. This is a quick update from the release I made a few hours ago which corrects some section handling problems that I introduced in my patch. This version should now correctly build the Cygwin DLL. For a brief description of this package, and a listing of the files it contains, see http://cygwin.com/packages/binutils . The project web page has more details: http://sourceware.org/binutils/ . 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. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the List-Unsubscribe: tag in the email header of this message.
