missing ipi_spec_dst in struct in_pktinfo
I'm trying to build socat for Cygwin (1.7). The build fails with
xio-ip.c:480: error: structure has no member named `ipi_spec_dst'
The offending code wants to use pktinfo->ipi_spec_dst.s_addr, where
pktinfo is a struct in_pktinfo *. The problem is that in Cygwin,
in_pktinfo doesn't have an ipi_spec_dst member. The IP man page
(http://homepages.cwi.nl/~aeb/linux/man2html/man7/ip.7.html) lists
in_pktinfo as
struct in_pktinfo {
unsigned int ipi_ifindex; /* Interface index */
struct in_addr ipi_spec_dst; /* Local address */
struct in_addr ipi_addr; /* Header Destination address */
};
while in /usr/include/cygwin/in.h, it's just
struct in_pktinfo
{
struct in_addr ipi_addr;
uint32_t ipi_ifindex;
};
Any suggestions for a workaround to this problem? Why is ipi_spec_dst
missing, and more to the point, what can/should I substitute in its
place? ip(7) says that "If ... ipi_spec_dst is not zero, then it is
used as the local source address for the routing table lookup and for
setting up IP source route options." This suggests that I could replace
it by zero. Comments?
Thanks,
Andrew.

Jordan, please send questions or problem reports about Cygwin packages directly to the Cygwin list.

Sorry it took me a while to get back to this. No, I got hung up on some 1.5 vs. 1.7 issues, and never released the 256-color version. But I've just spend some more time on it, and put together new packages for Cygwin 1.5 and 1.7, with 256-color support. I'm uploading these and you should see them shortly. However: (1) I haven't tested the 256-color support on many terminals yet, and (2) I've had to abandon my Cygwin 1.5 installation, so I can't test the 1.5 package at all. So, for now I'm releasing these as test packages. Once I get some reports from users about how well the 256-color support is working, I'll make them current. I'm including instructions in the README file for running screen with 256 colors and testing whether it's working.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: atool-0.35.0-1
A new version of the atool package is available in the Cygwin distribution. atool is a script for managing file archives of various types (tar, tar+gzip, zip, bzip2, rar, 7zip, ...). It has separate commands for creating, unpacking, listing, repacking, and showing differences between archives of its supported formats. It overcomes the dreaded "multiple files in the top level directory" problem by automatically unpacking archives into an appropriately named subdirectory if necessary. Changes in this release: * New upstream release: add support for pbzip2, rzip, lrzip, SX zip; some new options and bug fixes. * Fix too-specific invocation of /usr/bin/perl5.8.8 to /usr/bin/perl.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: autossh-1.4b-1
A new version of the autossh package is available in the Cygwin distribution. autossh is a program to start an instance of ssh and monitor it, restarting it as necessary should it die or stop passing traffic. autossh monitors connections by sending data to an echo server or through a loop of port forwardings, and checking that the data returns. autossh backs off on the rate of connection attempts when experiencing rapid failures such as connection refused. It includes an NT service mode, which works well as an NT system service under cygrunsrv. Version 1.4b-1 is a new upstream release. It fixes a bug in polling, and adds a new max lifetime option.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: stunnel-4.25-1
A new version of the stunnel package is available in the Cygwin distribution. This is a minor bug fix release from upstream. stunnel is a program that allows you to encrypt arbitrary TCP connections inside SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). stunnel can allow you to secure non-SSL aware daemons and protocols (like POP, IMAP, LDAP, etc) by having stunnel provide the encryption, requiring no changes to the daemon's code. Please note that, although libstunnel (i.e. cygstunnel.dll) is included in this package, its use is undocumented AFAICT and so I haven't tried to test it. I guess that its purpose is to provide transparent proxy support via stunnel by something like LD_PRELOAD=libstunnel.dll, but I don't really know how or if it works. Test reports are welcome on the cygwin list, but questions and discussion might better be directed to the stunnel-users list. Andrew E.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: unison2.13, unison2.17, unison2.27
New versions of the unison2.13, unison2.17, and unison2.27 packages are available in the Cygwin distribution. Unison is a file synchronizer for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. Changes in these releases: - Fixed two bugs in the postinstall scripts. One of them caused installation to fail in some cases. Thanks to Andy Moreton for pointing these out. Unison is packaged for Cygwin as three independent packages, each representing a version of Unison that is incompatible with the other two. You have to run the same version of Unison on the client and server, or Unison will issue an error message and quit. By installing one or more of these packages side by side, you can use whichever one you need to synchronize with a particular host. Please read /usr/share/doc/unison*/README.Cygwin for more details. The unison* packages also install a convenience symlink from /usr/bin/unison to one of the versioned unison executables, e.g. unison-2.27.exe. alternatives(8) is used to manage the symlink. If the symlink is being managed in "auto" mode, then it will automatically track the highest numbered version of unison that you have installed. You can override this choice by either changing the symlink manually with ln(1), or by using alternatives(8): alternatives --display unison shows you the installed versions of unison, their priorities, which executable the symlink points to, and whether the symlink is being managed in "auto" or "manual" mode. alternatives --config unison presents a menu from which you can choose which version you want to use as the default. This puts the symlink in manual mode. alternatives --auto unison puts the symlink in automatic mode, where it will always point to the highest numbered version of unison that's installed on your host. alternatives --set unison /usr/bin/unison-$V.exe forces the symlink to point to unison-$V.exe, and puts it in manual mode. Please see alternatives(8) for more details. Please note: if you installed any of the unison* packages prior to this release, a symlink from /usr/bin/unison was created for you on installation. alternatives(8) considers this symlink to be in "manual" mode, so it will not touch it until or unless you run alternatives with --config, --auto, or --set as described above.

Re: unison-gtk2-2.10.2-1

I'm sorry but I never have packaged unison-gtk2 for Cygwin. I did try at first, but ran into a fatal error that seemed to be caused by lablgtk2, the OCaml interface to GTK2. I wasn't able to solve it right away, and since I only use the text interface myself, I've never gotten back to it. If you want to try it yourself, I suggest installing lablgtk2, downloading one of the unison source packages, changing the build script to use UISTYLE=GTK2, and running the build script. Then run the app and see how it goes. Who knows, it might work. Let me know, and if we can get it to work, I'll package it for Cygwin.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New packages: unison2.13, unison2.17; updates to other unison packages
The unison2.13 and unison2.17 packages are now available in the Cygwin distribution. In addition, some minor documentation updates have been made to the unison2.9.1, unison2.9.20, unison2.10.2, unison2.12.0 packages. Unison is a file synchronizer for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. The Cygwin packages listed above provide all of the recent stable and beta releases of Unison. The versions are separated into different packages because different versions of Unison will not talk to each other. For example, if you are running Unison version 2.10.2 and attempt to synchronize with a server running version 2.9.20, Unison will issue an error message about incompatible versions and quit. (This restriction has been partially relaxed in versions 2.13 and later: two different versions are compatible if the first two numbers in their version string are the same. E.g. all versions 2.13.* are mutually compatible.) By installing one or more of the packages listed above, you can run whichever version you need in order to synchronize with your server. You can safely install more than one of the unison* packages: their executables are named e.g. /usr/bin/unison-2.9.1.exe, so they don't conflict. In addition, the package installer will create a symlink from /usr/bin/unison.exe to /etc/alternatives/unison.exe, and from /etc/alternatives/unison.exe to one of the installed /usr/bin/unison-*.exe files. You can reset this last symlink, either manually or using update-alternatives(8), to point to whichever version you want to use by default. If you are using your Cygwin host as the Unison server, you can invoke Unison on the client with '-servercmd /usr/bin/unison-$VERSION' to run the version you want on the server, or put 'servercmd /usr/bin/unison-$VERSION' into the client's preference file. Please note that all of the current Unison packages in Cygwin provide the CLI or text-mode version of Unison. The GUI (GTK2) version will be packaged for Cygwin iff I can get it to work.

No problem, but the approved method is to send your query to cygwin a cygwin d com, with "screen" in the subject. I should normally see that, and then other cygwin readers will also benefit from the discussion. > I am just trying to get hold of your screen build that you posted. > It seems to not be available any more via > http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/screen-4.0.2-1.tar.bz2 OK.

Most of it works just fine, but there's one problem that I haven't solved yet: when you detach a session, it stays bound to its parent shell. So if you then try to exit the parent shell, it hangs. You can terminate the parent shell, but then screen exits too. Obviously this takes away one of the big advantages of screen, which is the ability to detach a session, leaving it running in the background, and then reattach later from a different terminal. I've gotten some hints about how to attack this problem, but I just haven't been able to spend any time on it yet. It's high on my to-do list. Screen is great, and if I can solve that one problem it will be ready for Cygwin. There are also a few terminal oddities and intermittent display problems. But these are minor, so I don't think I'll wait for them to release the package. At least, I can put it into testing so people can try it out while I work on resolving the other problems. > Thanks > > - Shaun -- 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/

screen: fhandler_socket::close() fails w/ Cygwin >= 1.5.15
I have a working build of screen for Cygwin; see http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2005-04/msg00182.html. This version runs, but it won't reattach detached sessions (on either of my XP hosts) using Cygwin 1.5.15 or greater. It will reattach sessions using Cygwin 1.5.14 or earlier. Here are the details: When screen runs it forks off a child process that controls further children (e.g. shells) that run within the screen windows. The parent is attached to the tty. When the user detaches the session, the parent terminates but the child and its children stay running. The parent and child screen processes communicate by a socket (since I disabled FIFOs in the build configuration). With a session attached, I see: $ ls -l /tmp/uscreens/S-aschulma total 1 srwx-- 1 ASchulma None 53 May 17 12:46 4024.tty1.D77E1BASCHULMA1= Here 4024 is the PID of the child process. So far, so good. Now, I issue the 'detach' command within the screen session. Under Cygwin 1.5.14, I still see $ ls -l /tmp/uscreens/S-aschulma total 1 srwx-- 1 ASchulma None 53 May 17 12:46 4024.tty1.D77E1BASCHULMA1= and I can reattach my session with no trouble. But under Cygwin 1.5.15, after I detach I see $ ls -l /tmp/uscreens/S-aschulma/ total 1 -rw--- 1 ASchulma None 53 May 17 12:51 4024.tty1.D77E1BASCHULMA1 _The socket is no longer a socket._ It has turned into a plain file. And of course, I can't reattach my screen session, even though the child screen process is still running; screen says 'There is no screen to be resumed.' I attached strace to the running parent and child processes, just before issuing the 'detach' command. I did this separately using Cygwin 1.5.14 and 1.5.15. The logs are here: http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/strace/screen-cygwin-1.5.14-parent.txt http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/strace/screen-cygwin-1.5.15-parent.txt http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/strace/screen-cygwin-1.5.14-child.txt http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/strace/screen-cygwin-1.5.15-child.txt (Note that I massaged these logs in order to reduce noise and make them easier to compare. I removed the first two columns of timing data, and changed the PIDs and Thread handles in the 1.5.14 versions to match the ones in the 1.5.15 versions.) Comparing the parent logs (I find CSdiff to be good for this), I don't see much difference. With 1.5.14 there are a few extra calls to GetFileInformationByHandle and symlink.check_sysfile; that's about it. In the child logs, these difference looks like the crucial ones (1.5.14 is on top, 1.5.15 below): 237,238c236,238 < [main] SCREEN 4024 fhandler_disk_file::utimes: incoming lastaccess 428A1600 0002811D < [main] SCREEN 4024 fhandler_base::close: closing '/tmp/uscreens/S-aschulma/4024.tty0.D77E1BASCHULMA1' handle 0x14C --- > [main] SCREEN 4024 fhandler_base::utimes_fs: incoming lastaccess 428A1544 0001D443 > [main] SCREEN 4024 __set_winsock_errno: close:1429 - winsock error 10038 -> errno 108 > [main] SCREEN 4024 fhandler_socket::close: -1 = fhandler_socket::close() 279,282c279 < [select_socket] SCREEN 4024 thread_socket: Win32 select returned 1 < [select_socket] SCREEN 4024 thread_socket: s 0x10016978, testing fd 4 () < [select_socket] SCREEN 4024 thread_socket: read_ready So as far as I can see at this point, the cause of the reattachment trouble appears to be a failure of fhandler_socket::close() in Cygwin >= 1.5.15. Is this Cygwin's fault, or screen's? Or is it impossible to tell? If anyone is interested, my current screen package is available for testing: http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/setup.hint http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/screen-4.0.2-0test1.tar.bz2 http://home.comcast.net/~andrex/cygwin/screen/screen-4.0.2-0test1-src.tar.bz2 Andrew. -- 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/
[ANNOUNCEMENT] New package: stow
The stow package is now available in the Cygwin distribution. Stow is an installation manager for local software packages. It creates sets of symlinks from the installed location (e.g. /usr/local) to a stow directory (e.g. /usr/local/stow/emacs) where the real files live. This allows you to keep packages separate, while making them appear to be installed in the same place. Note that because stow uses symlinks to install files, it will probably only be effective for software that is used only in the Cygwin environment and doesn't install any DLLs. The reason is that Cygwin symlinks are implemented in the Windows file system as shortcuts (.lnk files), but Windows shortcuts are fundamentally broken: Windows will not, as a rule (the only exception being for GUI operations in Windows Explorer), interpret a shortcut as a pointer to a file. Cygwin corrects this and emulates the Unix behavior, but Windows programs won't, and PATH searches for DLLs won't follow shortcuts either.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New package: unison2.12.0 ; Updated: unison2.9.1, unison2.9.20,unison2.10.2
The unison2.12.0 package is now available in the Cygwin repository. In addition, some minor documentation updates have been made to the unison2.9.1, unison2.9.20, and unison2.10.2 packages, to reflect the new unison2.12.0 package. Unison is a file synchronizer for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. In Cygwin, Unison is provided in four separate packages: unison2.9.1, unison2.9.20, unison2.10.2, and now unison2.12.0. These packages correspond to the versions of Unison in most common use. The reason for separating Unison into packages by version is that different versions of Unison will not talk to each other. For example, if you are running Unison version 2.10.2 and attempt to synchronize with a server running version 2.9.20, Unison will issue an error message about incompatible versions and quit. By installing one or more of the packages listed above, you can run whichever version you need in order to synchronize with your server. Note, however, that every time you switch to a different version of Unison for synchronizing the same set of files, you will have to wait while Unison deletes and rebuilds its archive files. You can safely install more than one of these packages; their executables are named /usr/bin/unison-2.9.1.exe etc. In addition, the package installer will create a symlink from /usr/bin/unison.exe to /etc/alternatives/unison.exe, and from /etc/alternatives/unison.exe to one of the installed /usr/bin/unison-*.exe files. You can reset this last symlink, either manually or using update-alternatives(8), to point to whichever version you want to use by default. If you are using your Cygwin host as the Unison server, you can invoke Unison on the client with '-servercmd /usr/bin/unison-$VERSION' to run the version you want on the server, or put 'servercmd /usr/bin/unison-$VERSION' into the client's preference file.

Changes in version 2.10.2-2: * Fixed a bug in the -fastcheck option, that caused slow updates after the change to daylight savings time, unless archive files were deleted and rebuilt (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/unison-users/message/3821).

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New packages: unison2.9.1, unison2.9.20, unison2.10.2
Three new Unison packages are now available in the Cygwin distribution: unison2.9.1, unison2.9.20, and unison2.10.2. These packages replace the older 'unison' package, which is now deprecated and has been moved into the ZZZRemovedPackages category. Unison is a file synchronizer for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. The reason for separating Unison into three different packages is that different versions of Unison will not talk to each other. For example, if you are running Unison version 2.10.2 and attempt to synchronize with a server running version 2.9.20, Unison will issue an error message about incompatible versions and quit. By installing one or more of the packages listed above, you can run whichever version you need in order to synchronize with your server. Note, however, that every time you switch to a different version of Unison for synchronizing the same set of files, you will have to wait while Unison deletes and rebuilds its archive files. You can safely install more than one of these packages; their executables are named /usr/bin/unison-2.9.1.exe etc. In addition, the package installer will create a symlink from /usr/bin/unison.exe to /etc/alternatives/unison.exe, and from /etc/alternatives/unison.exe to one of the installed /usr/bin/unison-*.exe files. You can reset this last symlink, either manually or using update-alternatives(8), to point to whichever version you want to use by default. If you are using your Cygwin host as the Unison server, you can invoke Unison on the client with '-servercmd /usr/bin/unison-$VERSION' to run the version you want on the server, or put 'servercmd /usr/bin/unison-$VERSION' into the client's preference file. Please note that these unison* packages contain the CLI or text-mode version of Unison. The GUI (GTK2) version will be packaged for Cygwin if I can get it to work.

Control-C terminates ssh session
I'm using OpenSSH_3.7.1p2 under cygwin 1.5.5-1. ssh works fine, except that whenever I use Control-C to interrupt a running process, my ssh session is terminated instead. It's a real pain. Does anyone know why this happens, or how I can make it stop? I want Control-C to be interpreted by the remote shell, not my local shell. I looked through the cygwin list archives, and also comp.security.ssh archives. I found records of 2 other people asking this question within the last year, but no one answered. Any help appreciated.
