AW: [bulk] - Directory structuring
Hi Paul, Von: PaulAThompson Gesendet: Mittwoch, 27. Juni 2012 00:09 Betreff: [bulk] - Directory structuring I am very confused about the correct manner of defining directory paths under cygwin, perl, and bash. I cannot determine the correct manner. Using the cygwin window, I navigate to locations using cd /cygdrive/c/subdir Using a bash shell to run a perl process under the shell and passing in a directory, I must use a windows-style specification with *nix forward slashes c:/subdir I have tried a number of manner of using cd within the bash shell to change directories without any success [zac] As far as I can reproduce all windows/terminals under cygwin using the bash. So the reason for your problem might be located somewhere else. Is there a simple guide to the path specifications? This seems simple, but I cannot figure out the correct specification Within the bash shell, I have tried cd /cygdrive/c/subdir cd /cygdrive/c/subdir cd c:/subdir cd c:/subdir None of these work [zac] All of them should work! So what exactly is the reaction you get from the bash ?? Best regards Norbert DEWEK 2012, 11th German Wind Energy Conference, 7-8 November 2012 in Bremen http://www.dewek.de/ -- Dipl. Phys.

Do you really need this functionality for an arbitrary uid as input? Or
do you just want to know if the current process is running with a certain
privilege?
Yes, that sounds better. I don't use Cygwin, though, so
I'm not qualified to write that.
Broadening the question, does the cygwin community have advice on the
best implementation of a function that returns true if the argument is a
uid with full privileges (for example, if the uid is a member of the
Administrator group, and can therefore read files in spite of chown()
disabling all the read permissions)? We're trying to improve gnulib
(and therefore coreutils, findutils, tar, ...) to use an
implementation-appropriate check rather than the more traditional
hard-coded check of uid==0, since that doesn't quite work everywhere.
Security in Windows is kind of complicated. Not even the membership in
the group Administrators is a sure indicator that the current process
has the approriate rights. In short, every process has a user token
attached which defines the permissions a process has, given as a list
of group memberships and a list of special privileges. As an additional
twist, a privilege in the token can be enabled or disabled.
Some of them, if disabled, are automatically enabled when calling
certain functions, others have to be enabled explicitely before calling
functions relying on the privilege. There are no rules to that, other
than what's defined by the documentation.
I guess, the most platform-independent approach would be to encapsulate
the whole problem into a function requesting a specific capability along
the lines of the POSIX 1.e definitions, like, say
if (has_capability (CAP_CHOWN))
...
The actual implementation of has_capability can then be defined in
a platform-specific file. The default implementation of has_capability
would be something along the lines of
int
has_capability (int cap)
{
return geteuid () == 0;
}
Systems supporting POSIX 1.e could use the appropriate functions,
Windows-based platforms would use an implementation based on the
Win32 functions to request the user token information.
As a sidenote, it would be nice if Cygwin would support the POSIX 1.e
capabilities, but nobody had the time or incentive to implement this
yet. This might be a nice project for somebody who wants to contribute
to Cygwin, since its implementation is mostly independent from the
already existing functionality.

Windows Guest Account Locked SSH
Hello, We are facing an issue where our guest domain account is getting locked during the SSH logon process and we do not know how to troubleshoot this problem. We did some research but did not find anything useful about this issue so we decided to ask help. Does anyone know what could be causing this? We are running a very old version, Cygwin 1.5.2, but we are not sure if this is the cause. Basically if we open a SSH session to server A our guest domain account is locked and if we check the Windows event log we see an event saying that the account was locked from server A. -George -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

You should update (probably reinstalling would be better) to current cygwin if possible, and check if you still have the same problem. -- Primary key fingerprint: AD8F BDC0 5A2C FD5F A179 60E7 F79B AB04 5299 EC56 signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Re: cygwin 1.7.15: svn disk I/O error
David Rothenberger writes: Strange. It works for me and the ldd output for _Core.dll is reasonable. What version of autotools, swig etc. are you using? The only swig wrappers that work for me are those for Python. Both Ruby and Perl seem to die on those strangely non-functional DLL the build has produced. Ruby had an additional problem: it was looking for the libraries in a directory .ext, but the build put them into .libs. A symlinked fixed that, but then the DLL could not be loaded anyway... Yaakov's changes worked for me. Yes, there must be some difference in how the build got configured. Anyway, it seems that your new build will be available much faster than any attempt by me to find and fix those differences. Anyway, I'll have a new release available shortly built against the latest SQLite package, so others that want to use TortoiseSVN can try it. Thank you.

Interesting error when trying to start sshd
Hello! I confess I'm confused. I vaguely recall finding the response someplace, but I know not where. I've done all that needs to be done to enable sshd to run on this newly installed Cygwin setup. (It is new because the computer needed to have its OS reinstalled earlier this month.) Here is the message: GCL@CMDRSKYWALKER / $ cygrunsrv -S sshd cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062: The service has not been started. - Gregg C Levine gregg.drw...@gmail.com This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
/dev/clipboard corrupted
If the clipboard contains large data, the contents retrieved from /dev/clipboard gets corrupted. I compared the following in a few cases: * cat /dev/clipboard or cp /dev/clipboard (which are equal) * mouse-paste into mintty, read with cat * read /dev/clipboard within application and I found all three results to be different, the correct one sometimes being cat /dev/clipboard but not always. In today's case, the differences occured at byte 10240 and 65536 respectively, thus 10K-1 bytes or 64K-1 bytes being equal. -- Thomas -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Re: Directory structuring
I have solved this problem. Please do not reply any more. Solution: 1) Ensure that cygwin was using a cygwin-native perl 2) Routine use of d2u to get the files to have *nix endings for lines not windows endings PaulAThompson wrote: I am very confused about the correct manner of defining directory paths under cygwin, perl, and bash.
