from address of cron emails

2007-11-09 Thread Rob Siklos

You were right on the mark...forgot to copy the header files into my cygwin environment. I was a little too anxious there. Copied over the header files and build worked for rsync. Thanks! Yeah, aware of the caveat on production stuff. I'm just working on testing some rsync patches to deal with

No posix_fallocate support?

I've been trying to compile rsync using the cygwin CVS from yesterday. When I do the configure it is reporting the posix_fallocate function is not supported. The version of cygwin1.dll is 1007.0.0 with an API version of 0.177. I thought posix_fallocate was still supported? -- Unsubscribe
