Native links break zsh
Hi! After adding export CYGWIN='winsymlinks: nativestrict' command to my .zshrc file I'm experiencing the problem with zsh HISTFILE. The message says: History locking file failed: No such file or directory. I don't know how this is related since HISTFILE isn't a link at all. Thanks. Yuriy.

I just copied the dist folder it created up to the web. Am I missing some key bit? The tarballs look new, but the setup.hint is definitely old. Depending on how you uploaded these files, maybe you forgot to overwrite that one? Yaakov No, I deleted everything. I also deleted the build tree before running cygport. I'll do it again, but the setup.hint that's up there is the one created by cygport after I included your patches. Ok, I figured it out. I had forgotten that I actually had a setup.hint file and that cygport wasn't creating it. I built it correctly now, I think. I'll be uploading a new one within the hour. -- Chris J. Breisch

Re: [ITP] AtomicParsley

It is found in many Linux distros, including Fedora [1]. The package name has been capitalised to reflect the name of the executable and to mirror the Fedora package name. Debian and Ubuntu both use the lowercase 'atomicparsley' for the package name, but keep the executable as 'AtomicParsley'. Personally, I prefer the Fedora convention, but I'm happy to change this if there's precedent elsewhere. Generally we base this on the tarball name, but I see there aren't anymore. The old (=0.9.0) tarballs were CamelCased, but the hg repo is lowercase (go figure). Under the circumstances, I'd say it's up to you. Thank you for taking the time to look at this. I think I would prefer to keep with 'AtomicParsley', as this reflects the executable name. Finally, I've been asked in the past to provide man pages for executables in my packages. AtomicParsley doesn't come with a man page, so I've generated one using help2man(1). I'm tempted to drop the man page though - even the Debian build comes without a man page these days [2]. help2man only provides good output if --help itself follows certain conventions; AtomicParsley does not. Since we don't really have a policy to *require* manpages where they don't already exist (this isn't Debian), and the resulting manpage doesn't look all that readable anyway, I suggest you just drop it. It's gone. I wasn't overly keen on the man page either :-) As for the actual build, you should drop src_compile() and use the default cygautoreconf/cygconf/cygmake combination. Cygwin-specific READMEs are optional, so you may drop that too if you wish. Otherwise this looks GTG. As per your suggestion I have dropped src_compile(). I've also removed my custom src_install() - I don't need this since I'm not installing a man page anymore. I've kept the Cygwin-specific README, as this is generated and it would be more work to remove it than keep it. If you're happy with this then please could you (or CGF) add an entry for AtomicParsley to cygwin-pkg-maint. I'll give the new build one last test tomorrow and then upload it. Thanks again for your constructive suggestions, Dave.
New Version 1.7.30-1: Passwd -R option. Can only update logged in user.
Hi, Recently there was an update to the passwd -R feature in 1.7.30-1 which allows you to pipe in a password to the passwd -R. This is a something that we really need and the update is appreciated. :) There is still an issue in that you can only update the registry for the user that is currently logged in. In previous versions (such as 1.7.25), an administrator could update for any user (although the piping feature was unavailable). In the new version 1.7.30-1, when an attempt to update for any other user an error is produced stating: Storing password failed: No such file or directory. Is this something that the Cygwin team would be able to fix ? Looking for the ability to pipe in a password and update the registry with various users password. This functionality needs to be incorporated into cloud product. The original issue is related to something that Corinna was working on. See https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-04/msg00449.html I haev screen shots but your email server will not accept them. Please let me know how to send if needed. I appreciate any help or suggestions you can provide.

Re: RemoteServerAdministrationTools problem
Aside from this set of Windows tools, can you reproduce the same behavior with some more commonly available and more compact utility? I had two system exhibiting this symptom. Wish there was an official way to install an older cygwin, like 1.7.27 or .26. No other commands are behaving differently that I am aware of. I did reinstall win7 ent on my second system, installed RSAT and cygwin and dsquery works again. Not sure what I did in both systems to create this problem. I though it was Proxy32 for proxywinconsole.exe which let me go interactive from a cygwin shell to powershell for my powershell wrapper (see https://bitbucket.org/jbianchi/powershell) but I only installed that on my main system. I'll rebuild and continue to install all the utils to see what breaks it again. The RSAT tools give command line access to AD and lets me script so much. I'm blown away by how a windows admin will work so inefficiently using the Active Directory User and Computers GUI tool. Batch scripting is terrible and the windows console is worse. And don't start me on Powershell! Powershell has a crappy console, no history retention ... how can they be valid shells/consoles? You just dont develop ps1 scripts to call ps1 scripts to build more powerfull utils in powershell like you do in unix. Cygwin with RXVT gives me a complete enough unix shell with a great console (cut and paste anyone?). I can script mixing powershell, dos batch and cygwin I can make windows managable. -- 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: Compiling cygwin1.dll
Greetings, Michael Wild! Many thanks. So you are saying, you never used the top-level build system? I don't NEED to rebuild whole toolchain to begin with. And it takes about half an hour just to configure it on my system. Or at least half an hour up to first error, which I'm unable to get much sense from, since I'm no expert in bird languages. That would explain a lot. So it is just an iterative trial and error process? Way to go... For me, it was.

CYGWIN - As admin setup other users SSH for them?
I've got a Windows system setup with SSH in CYGWIN working. I've used mkpaswd to install the users in /etc/passwd. As administrator I want to: 1) generate the key pairs for the other users. 2) install the public key in the users $home/.ssh/authorized_keys. 3) deliver the private key to the user along with the rest of the instructions on how to use it in the provided apps. With out their passwords I can't login to establish their $home directory structure, run ssh-keygen, copy the key files. Thanks. -- 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
