The cygcheck comes up with procps, but that's only because I installed it. You may be right, perhaps the package wasn't there before. It was a combination of coincidences (misbehaving xterm, firewall warning of someone wanting to connect to sshd) that made me suspect something was wrong. I'm going to catch a few snores and take another look at those event logs.

RE: top is gone (PLUS sshd logs)
They are a little raw but the important stuff is there. the log in /var/log/sshd.log is the error log useful for stroubleshooting if sshd wont start. > -Original Message- > From: Fred Ma [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 20 June 2003 10:48 > To: Vince Hoffman > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: top is gone (PLUS sshd logs) > > > > > Original Message ---- > Subject: Re: top is gone (PLUS sshd logs) > Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2003 05:47:06 -0400 > From: Fred Ma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: Vince Hoffman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Vince Hoffman wrote: > > > > Hi, > > sshd stores its logs in the windows event log. > > Vince > > > Hi, Vince, I just took a look at them.

They are certainly quite raw. I also found a log file in /c/var/log/sshd.log. The message being that it can't load the host keys, even though the files it specifies are indeed present and readable by user "Administ", group "mkpasswd". Hmm, maybe that's the reason. I've taken the administrator out of /etc/passwd, leaving only users and "system". Still trying to get my environment back to normal. Thanks, Vince.

RE: top is gone (PLUS sshd logs)
Hi, sshd stores its logs in the windows event log.

It's amazing. I wonder how it disappeared the first time (before I wiped away c:\Cygwin). Right now, xterms are behaving properly again, and I will see if they remain doing so when I've recustomized the window manager the way it was before. I wish I knew what caused that, if only to avoid recustomizing my environment again. Thanks a bunch. Fred P.S. I looked at the man pages for where sshd records its log of accesses, but couldn't find info about this. Nothing in the default config file either. Is this a cygwin specific location? I would have liked to check for external accesses today (or yesterday, by now). -- Fred Ma, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Carleton University, Dept. of Electronics 1125 Colonel By Drive, Ottawa, Ontario Canada, K1S 5B6 -- 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/
Re: top is gone
Hi Fred, Try running "cygcheck -svr | grep procps" and if it gives you nothing, that means that top is not installed. By the way, you may want click the "Packages" link under http://cygwin.com and try to look for the utility you're missing. For example, you may type "top.exe" (without the double-quotes, of course) at the search box.I got these results: Found 4 matches for top.exe. procps/procps-010801-1 Utilities for monitoring your system and processes on your system. procps/procps-010801-2 Utilities for monitoring your system and processes on your system. proftpd/proftpd-1.2.9rc1-2 A flexible, stable and highly-configurable FTP Server proftpd/proftpd-20030513-2 A flexible, stable and highly-configurable FTP Server > But the missing "top" was strange enough that I > wiped out the entire c:\cygwin tree and reinstalled > it from scratch.

Re: top is gone
Fred, I think top is part of the procps package. Try installing that.
