Yep, we sure do, that's about the third time you've posted it. Can you check if there's a copy stuck in your yahoo outbox and delete it? Looks like yahoo thinks it's failing to send when it actually succeeded and it tries again every time you log in. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today -- 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/

You aren't really a member of a group called "mkgroup-l-d"! This name is a
hint to you from cygwin that there is no entry in the groups file for (at
least one of) the groups you are a member of and you need to run mkgroup to
update it. For more information about mkgroup and mkpasswd, see
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mkpasswd
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mkgroup
You appear to be in a domain, so you probably want to use both "-l" and "-d"
options for both of them. I can't say for certain whether it will help or
not, but having your passwd/groups files incomplete can cause problems with
permissions which might be responsible for blocking your access to certain
files. Out of curiousity, what output do you see from the commands
ls -la /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/etc/
ls -la /etc/{hosts,protocols,services,networks}
wc -l /etc/{hosts,protocols,services,networks}
cheers,
DaveK

This is a duplicate of the post you sent last week. Oh, I get it. You just resent an old post as an easy way to send your cygcheck output and you didn't edit the text any. Ok, let's see..

The reason it fixed your issue is probably because SYSTEMROOT is not set in your cygwin environment, and this causes winsock failures, which manifest when telnet (client) tries to look up the well-known port number for telnet (service) in the ports database. So the interesting question is, what is going on in your environment? Is SYSTEMROOT set or not? Is it correct or not?

Well, that may work but it's suboptimal. The real fix is to ensure that the environment variable SYSTEMROOT is always set, which is normally done by Windows without the user having to do anything. Unsetting this may cause any number of things to break, and this may only be one of them -- even if your particular telnet problem is solved you need to make sure that SYSTEMROOT isn't being unset somewhere. You see this happen sometimes when an app spawns a child process (such as CGI) and tries to be clever about clearing its environment of unnecessary things. If SYSTEMROOT is one of them, random thing start breaking. There is code in Cygwin to try to prevent this from ever happening, but this obviously is of no use to non-Cygwin programs or programs that go behind Cygwin's back (such as by calling the win32 API directly.) Another version of this problem crops up if some program (perhaps a brain-dead installer) changes this particular registry key from a REG_EXPAND_SZ to a standard string (REG_SZ) type, in which case the environment variable will not be expanded. It must be type REG_EXPAND_SZ.

RE: telnet: tcp/telnet: unknown service
After doing a lot more googleing, I've stumbled upon this fix. Wonder if you know about this issue? In regedit go to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters edit DataBasePath change %SystemRoot% to its real value (on mine its C:\WINDOWS) Don't know why but this fixed my issue.
