That's a good idea, very close to what I had in mind for the except clause in suggestion c) above. At any rate this doesn't favor keeping lookup_name() and using it up only in alloc_sd(). So you could still apply my patches, even if you want to move from b) to the direction of c). Ok, applied. However, I think calling lookup_name in internal_getlogin() is somewhat useless. I agree. My patches remove it, but replace it with something similar. I will remove it later if you apply them. By the way, your ChangeLog entry is missing * passwd.cc :) :) :) Thanks, I've fixed that.

The leading tab is in the attached file. His mail client converted it to a leading space. Earnie.

Attached patch allows regtool to access registry on remote hosts, e.g.: regtool get \\bumba\machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentVersion\programFilesDir Just a question: Wouldn't it make sense to use a syntax as rcp/scp: regtool get bumba:\machine\software\microsoft\... This together with the capability to use forward slashes looks more unixy: regtool get bumba:/machine/software/microsoft/... In this context I see for the first time, that the usage doesn't say anything about using forward slashes. Shouldn't we add a word that this is possible, too?

Corinna, Something came to my mind last night: the sid that your new code in passwd.cc gets from the token should already be in user.sid (and user.orig_sid). Why not get it from there instead? I also have a question: why does internal Cygwin code use strcasematch() instead of !strcasecmp()? I (ignorantly) used strcasecmp() recently, it seems to work. Pierre
Re: Patch for sub-second resolution in stat(2)
You know, I had some trouble with this, too. Maybe it would be worth adding to contrib.html that attaching a ChangeLog.txt file works well to preserve formatting? --- Conrad Scott [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Earnie Boyd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Attach the ChangeLog entry to the mail, make sure the mime for the attachment is text or make sure the file has a .txt suffix.

Thanks for the hint: I've just had a look and yes, OE was attaching the changelog file as 'application/octet-stream' (i.e. binary). I'll try saving the file as 'changelog.txt' and attaching that next time. Thanks. // Conrad __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com

Add new -T|--toggle option to strace
As per a discussion yesterday with Chris, I've added a new option to strace, -T or --toggle, to toggle tracing in a process already being straced. One other change I made was to replace a use of ExitProcess() with exit() --- otherwise some error messages didn't appear since the stdio buffers weren't being flushed. I've also updated the section for strace in utils.sgml. I know that Joshua has been holding off on changing utils.sgml (see http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-patches/2002-q2/msg00276.html) so I don't know whether you want this update or not. It's not much more than a cut and paste from the usage message in strace.cc. ChangeLog appended here and attached (to keep its format out of Outlook's clutches). // Conrad 2002-06-07 Conrad Scott [EMAIL PROTECTED] * strace.cc (toggle): New global variable. (error): Use exit instead of ExitProcess so that stdio buffers get flushed. (create_child): Remove command line error checking. (dostrace): Ditto. (dotoggle): New function. (usage): Add entry for new option -T|--toggle. Alphabetize. (longopts): Add new option -T|--toggle. (opts): Ditto. (main): Handle new -T|--toggle option. Move all command line checking here from other functions. * utils.sgml: Update section for strace. strace.patch Description: Binary data utils.patch Description: Binary data 2002-06-07 Conrad Scott [EMAIL PROTECTED] * strace.cc (toggle): New global variable.
