Re: screen reattach not working?
I have tried with an user that is in administrators group and it still doesn't work. and the cat socket error really is no such device or address and the same is reported in rxvt so I guess we can't conclude from that that permissions are a problem. What other info can I provide? Should I strace screen and send the output? Has anyone got screen reattach working under Vista?

Also the user I'm ssh-ing into does not have administrator privleges, might try changing that. I tried to do a cat /tmp/uscreens/S-name/socket-name and it says permission denied CYGWIN is set to ntsec tty /etc/passwd is created using mkpasswd -l and ssh confugred using ssh-host-config -y or what was that command again what else could be interesting? I think that screen does bad at error reporting either it doesn't say anything or it blurps some strange messages like, you die in a dungeon or something. btw, after checking processes with ps I can see that screen and bash are running, i just can't attach to that screen session. -- 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/

Read that, but the short version is that all features of screen are supposed to work correctly in a DOS console with CYGWIN=tty (set before you open the console), and in rxvt, PuTTYcyg, and xterm. I'm not sure about an ssh session. If it will work from a DOS console with CYGWIN=tty, it should work fine from ssh. I have read the screen/README.Cygwin and couldn't find a solution.

Re: screen reattach not working?
Correction: besides rxvt, screen also works in xterm. However I can't get screen working in the default cygwin CMD console running bash and also can't get it working over ssh.

Re: screen reattach not working?
Another update on my screen adventures, please accept my apologies since i'm posting so frequently. I have removed completely the /tmp/uscreens/S-Damjan directory and it's contents and killed all the cygwin processes. Now screen reattaching works in CMD cygwin bash window as well (and rxvt and xterm) But still no luck with ssh. If I run screen under ssh, then detach it and then try to re-attach under ssh nothing happens, screen -r just exits with no message. If I try to attach to that screen from a local CMD bash window I get the following message: Suddenly the Dungeon collapses!! - You die... btw ps -e under ssh and under local cmd window do not show the same processes even though id reports the same user. It seems to me that there might be some problem with privileges under ssh or something? what else can I try? :) On 2007-10-05, Damjan Lango wrote: Correction: besides rxvt, screen also works in xterm.

Re: screen reattach not working?
As I see you're requesting cygcheck -s -v -r output for other problems, I'm attaching it here as well if it helps with my ssh / screen reattach problem. btw, when cygcheck completed, it also reported: 'id' program not found 'id' program not found but id is working fine: $ id uid=1000(Damjan) gid=513(None) groups=513(None),544(Administrators),545(Users) $ type id id is hashed (/usr/bin/id) On 2007-10-05, Damjan Lango wrote: Another update on my screen adventures, please accept my apologies since i'm posting so frequently.

screen reattach not working?
Hi! What is the current status of screen reattach? For me it does not work under the default cygwin bash shell, which uses cmd console afaik and it does not work under cygwin sshd. The only way it works is under cygwin rxvt. I would most like to use it under sshd.

The older the sessions get, the more likely they are to be bad and then I have to -wipe them, and manually kill any of their child processes. Please keep posting test reports about screen so I can try to figure out what's going on.
