This seems to work fine, is there anything I should be aware of if we
looked to use this in production environment?
The mount points are now stored in /etc/fstab and /etc/fstab.d/$USER
instead of in the system and user registry. There are also a couple
of changes which we don't exactly consider ready for release.
In theory, you shouldn't use it in a production environment yet.
Ooo thats a nice change :) I'd obviously like to avoid it but someones
got to be first and if there is no way to fix chmod under 1.5.X it may
be our only option. With this in mind I'll look to prep a full install
and do some more in depth testing in order to determine if there are
any show stoppers that would preclude us using 1.7.
One thing I did notice is that rebaseall fails with:-
/usr/bin/cyglsa64.dll: fixing bad relocations
FixImage (/usr/bin/cyglsa64.dll) failed with last error = 13
As a temporary workaround I renamed it to allow rebase to complete on
all but this file.
The DLL has been build with VC++ due to the lack of a 64 bit capable gcc
for Cygwin. As long as this is the case, rebaseall will have to be
changed to skip cyglsa.dll and cyglsa64.dll. For the time being, what
you did is the right thing to do.
Hmm cyglsa.dll appeared to process fine could this cause an issue?
Btw., another workaround using Cygwin 1.5.25 would be to use password
authentication, at least as long as you're not logging in to a domain
admin account. The latter requires tweaking /etc/group...
Unfortunately password based access it not an option here for a number
of reasons, mainly as its used by a large number of automation scripts
remotely.
I know its cheaky but I dont suppose you could shed any light on my
other thread regards 2008 support:-
"apache crashing on windows 2008 when listening on localhost"
Thanks for taking the time to look at this, most appreciated.
Regards
Steve
