Hi, (cygwin on windows XP SP1)
when I tried to run ftp, I've got : > ftp server ftp: ftp/tcp: unknown service I have the same with telnet I tried to change the access right on the file services but nothing change I wrote this little C program: #include <netdb.h> main () { struct servent *s; s = getservent(); if ( s != 0x00 ) printf("%d\n", s->s_port); else printf("NO !\n"); } which work perfectly, so I guess the access right are OK if I tried to run getservbyname it failed. /etc/services is a link to WIN/system32/drivers/etc/services and cygwin use this last one, not the link any idea ?! I don't think I started or stopped any windows service. best regards, Nicolas -- 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/
