Hi everybody, I downloaded the most recent cygwin-packages yesterday, have a Linux-machine (Debian, Woody, Kernel 2.4.18) and an XP-Prof SP1 one. telnet and ftp give me "hostname: gethostname: operation not permitted" *after* the successful login. Besides this error-message, ftp and telnet seem to work fine. However, there is a delay in response, after "telnet wintendo" it takes a few seconds to display the cygwin login-prompt.
I'm experiencing problems with issuing "rsh wintendo date" as root@debian, this gives me "date: write error: operation not permitted". The eventlog of the XP-machine says (marked as information), this looks fine to me: rshd : Win32 Process Id = 0x694 : Cygwin Process Id = 0x694 : root@debian as root: cmd='date'. Entering "rsh -l rscsi wintendo date" (User rscsi has /usr/local/bin/rscsi as login-shell) gives me rscsi's debug-messages: rscsid: user id 1004, name rscsi rscsid: stdin st_mode 140666 rscsid: peername Operation not permitted The author of rscsi says, that stdin is a socket (as it should be) but function getpeername() would fail, thus resulting in failure of rscsi. I assume, the "gethostname" and "getpeername" problems are related, that I'm doing something wrong, but what? The opposite direction (XP to Linux) works fine, I compared the config-files, also googled a lot, searched this archive, but couldn't find a solution to my problem. Any help would be greaty appreciated. I did not want to bore you with long extracts from my config-files, but would of course provide any eventually missing information.
