updatedb.local
I've just set up locate(1) for the first time. The default configuration of updatedb doesn't scan all of C:, only c:\cygwin, so I did the obvious thing and got spammed by permission denied errors. Rather than cope by indexing the disk as Administrator, I decided to just start adding exclusions. The list grew long enough that I decided I should share the result to save someone else the pain of recreating it: #!/bin/sh updatedb --localpaths='/c /' \ --prunepaths=' .*Logs .*/LogFiles .*Temp .*Tmp /c/cygwin /c/$Recycle.* /c/PerfLogs /c/ProgramData /c/Recovery /c/System.* /c/Program.*/WindowsApps /c/Program.*/.*/CrashReports /c/Users/Administrator /c/Users/cyg_server /c/Users/Public /c/Windows/AppCompat/Programs /c/Windows/AUInstallAgent /c/Windows/CSC /c/Windows/LiveKernelReports /c/Windows/Minidump /c/Windows/PLA /c/Windows/Prefetch /c/Windows/Resources/Themes /c/Windows/ServiceProfiles /c/Windows/security /c/Windows/ServiceProfiles /c/Windows/Sys.*/Com/dmp /c/Windows/Sys.*/config /c/Windows/Sys.*/MsDtc /c/Windows/Sys.*/networklist /c/Windows/Sys.*/sru /c/Windows/Sys.*/Tasks /c/Windows/WinSxS /c/Windows.old /proc /tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp' Note that it's written with the assumption that you hack away the 'cygdrive' stuff in /etc/fstab. Most of the exclusions are just system directories of one sort or another, which Windows wants to hide away from you. I've added the usual assortment of temp, log and trash directories, in addition to the ones at the end which recapitulate the defaults, except for /afs which doesn't exist on Cygwin. There's a minor trick of including / but excluding /c/cygwin, so searches for files in the Cygwin tree don't show up twice. I've excluded WinSxS, even though it's readable, because it just contains backups of files that normally live elsewhere. When you go looking for one of the files it mirrors, you almost certainly want to find the canonical copy only. Some of the excluded directories won't exist on all systems, but are common enough that I felt comfortable leaving them in the public version of this script. (e.g. Google Chrome's CrashReports folder, Windows.old...) I welcome additions to the exclusion list. Maybe this script can show up in a future findutils release, with a note about it in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/findutils.README? -- 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

But please do read through what I pointed you to first, and check its applicability carefully before attempting this. 'Probably' is not good enough when the goal is targeted destruction :) In that case, you shouldn't be looking at /dev names anyway. They're assigned in order of device discovery, so the device that gets called /dev/sdb or whatever depends on what happened before your code ran. Actually, it's even worse than that. In Disk Management, you can permanently assign a USB key a different drive letter than the default. Now when you put it in, it appears somewhere other than code blindly hard-coded with a /dev name expects. Or, put two USB keys in, one gets called F: (say) and the other G:. Remove both. Now plug the second back in...it's still called G:! Hence, it gets a different /dev name. If this were Linux, I'd suggest basing your script's logic on device or filesystem UUIDs, but I don't know how to do that under Cygwin. Does windows leave a trail when mounting? Oh, doubtless there's something buried in the NT device namespace, mentioned in the document I pointed you to. Maybe you could dump two copies of it and diff(1) them, and assume that the one line that appears in the output is the new device.

Re: Problem with HTTPS in LWP module in Perl - solution

I ran into the same problem, did some wiresharking, and figured out
what the differences are
between a successful handshake (Firefox) and the failure (LWP using

I'm not too familiar with SSL/TLS etc, but it turns out that the cipher

and presence of some ciphers
is the cause: the actual cipher used is TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA, which
is present in both
cases. Also the TLS version used (1.0 for Firefox, 1.2 for openssl) does
not make a difference.
The following code allows for a successful transaction with
https://www.geocaching.com.
The solution is in the SSL_cipher_list:
$ perl -e '$ENV{PERL_NET_HTTPS_SSL_SOCKET_CLASS}="IO::Socket::SSL";\
use IO::Socket::SSL; IO::Socket::SSL::set_defaults(SSL_cipher_list =>
"RC4-SHA");\
use LWP::UserAgent; print LWP::UserAgent->new()->request(\
HTTP::Request->new(GET=>"https://www.geocaching.com";))->content;'
However this includes only the one cipher (and
TLS_EMPTY_RENEGOTIATION_INFO_SCSV).
Expanding to all SHA ciphers, the following filter must be used:
'SHA:!NULL:!3DES:!DES:!ADH:!SRP'
Finally, this is the filter with a relatively broad scope, and again all
exclusions are required:
'ALL:!3DES:!DES:!ADH:!SRP:!AESGCM:!SHA256:!SHA384'
When any of these excluded ciphers/hashes are present in the Client
Hello negotiation packet,
there is no response from the server besides a TCP ACK.
Note that, for instance, '!3DES' also filters out ciphers that use 3DES
as an encoding (I guess)
and not as the main cipher, such as TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA, who's
presence in the handshake is not problematic.
I figure that servers that do not respond at the TLS/SSL level when they
see a client offering certain capabilities have their reasons for doing
so, for a 'rep scasw' can't be that buggy.
Yours sincerely,
Kenney Westerhof

Probably just sheer orneriness. We like to leave some things undone

Well, I've tried using things like printf("\e[?25l") and
printf("\e[?25h") in my code, if that's what you mean.
But, yes, just like curs_set(), it only works on terminals
running in graphics mode, not in the console windows.
I wonder why it hasn't been implemented.

There's a DEC control sequence called DECTCEM for hiding or showing the cursor, which is implemented in mintty (the default Cygwin terminal), xterm, rxvt, and presumably others.

They don't need to lecture them on UI design. It seems this is an old problem. I had a look at the archives and found following post from 2001: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2001-07/msg01115.html Does anybody know if there's been any change since then? Apparently not, but maybe I'm missing something. And as I said, any workaround would be appreciated. Lars, I've never worked with the kind of device you mention. Maybe one day I'll be able to contribute to having a more egalitarian access to computer programs. For now, I don't see how having a cursor flickering around a screen that has to be constantly updated will help blind people.
