[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: OpenSSH-3.0.2p1-2
I've updated the version of OpenSSH in cygwin/latest to 3.0.2p1-2.
=
This is a security update. Only the Cygwin OpenSSH is concerned.
Problem description:
If you're logging in to a Cygwin sshd with version 2 protocol using an
arbitrary user name which is not in /etc/passwd, the forked sshd which
is handling this connection crashes with a segmentation violation. The
client side encounters an immediate disconnect ("Connection reset by
peer"). This could be used by a malicious remote client to enumerate
the user names on the Cygwin server machine.
Cause:
--
The Cygwin specific code implicitly dereferences a pointer to a struct
passwd. This pointer can be NULL if the user isn't found in /etc/passwd.
Solution:
-
Update to version 3.0.2p1-2.
=
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin web page. This downloads setup.exe
to your system. The, run setup and answer all of the questions.
Note that we do not allow downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka
cygwin.com) due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need
to find a mirror which has this update.
In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a
reliable high bandwidth connection.
In Germany,
ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is
usually pretty good.
In the UK,
http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/
is usually up-to-date within 48 hours.
If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then
you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror.
If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I would appreciate
if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.
This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin
in general.
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.

Newbie question
All I have been using cygwin for some time now, as a replacement shell basically on various flavours on Windows machines. I only joined this list about a week ago however, and have noticed that some of the mail is to do with server side networking, such as imetd. I am very interested in setting something like this up, which from what I infer from the questions allows telneting on to a box running cygwin. I have checked the archives, and the user guide, but cannot find anything about how to set up these daemons. Could someone please provide some pointers? Thank you in advance.

Most information is in /usr/doc/Cygwin/ in the various README's, like for inetutils, openssh, cygrunsrv which probably are the first you're looking for now. There are also a lot of 'recipes' in the mailing list archives. Maybe you need to install some of the packages first if there are no docs.

Re: Permission denied running programs in other directories
Hi folks,
disclaimer: can't say with certainty (99%) that what it appears to be is actually the
case. This is more like me thinking
out loud than anything else.

It really looks to be very similar to a /root vs. Win4Lin /root access
conflict.

Again, it may be that you are getting conflicts between what Win4Lin considers
/root and what your Linux
system thinks of as $ROOT. (You may need to give Win4Lin su status. Just a guess
based on behavior I noted
when I used Linux extensively many years ago, but seems to make sense.)
I am not familiar with how Win4Lin sets things up. Believe (again, not
certain) that setup.exe determines
Cygwin /root when it does an "install from web". Under MS Windows, the assumption is
that once Cygwin /root is set
it does not need to be re-initialized, not ever. (Linux needs to always have /root
defined.) Now, if Linux is over-riding
or re-defining $ROOT settings when Win4Lin is shut down, it would make sense that the
Cygwin /root would always
need to be re-initialized/defined whenever Win4Lin is restarted. In extreme cases,
this could be accomplished with
some sort of SU priority shell script which is run whenever Win4Lin is launched.

It works until you try and access a term i/o (console?) directive.
Other possibility, you're missing a $PATH$ or symlink(hard) reference. Again,
uncertain on this, so it is
largely speculation, ctrl-d is typically a call to Cygwin console/term driver, isn't
it? Does ctrl-d run when $PWD is set
(Win4Lin) to Cygwin /root (Under MS-Windows is defined as
"Cygwin /root" -- same likely
applies for Win4Lin)?
Again, looks like a conflict between what Cygwin considers "/root" for
MS-Windows and what Linux considers
/root for System ($ROOT) once Win4Lin (process?) has been shut down and restarted.

Looks like user priority ("Linux su" vs. "Linux user") conflict.
