In your case it can only be a firewall issue, although you said you deactivated it, but maybe there is still another firewall active either on your machine or between the machines. You can of course keep your firewall(s), but you have to open port 22 or an other port of your desire (see/set in /etc/ssh_config in cygwin, and normally /etc/ssh/sshd_config on Linux boxes, for example Debian) to access your machine from remote.

cygcheck output sometimes gets truncated when piped (cygwin-1.7)
On a fresh install of cygwin-1.7 (1.7.0-30) on Vista, the output of "cygcheck -s" sometimes gets truncated. This seems to be more reproducible when the output is piped to another command. I find that this sequence is shows problem quite regularly (typically more than half of the cycheck commands will have the output truncated): i=0; while [ $i -lt 10 ] ; do echo $i; cygcheck -s | grep . > out.$i ; i=$(($i + 1)); done ; ls -l out.* There seems to be two failure modes. The first truncates the ouptut within the firt three lines. The second hangs the "cygcheck -s | grep ." command so that it will not respond to job control (interrupt or suspend). In this case I need to kill the grep from another shell to complete the loop. Here is some sample output from the above command: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 7440 Oct 5 05:39 out.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 151 Oct 5 05:39 out.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 36 Oct 5 05:39 out.2 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 7440 Oct 5 05:39 out.3 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 151 Oct 5 05:39 out.4 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 151 Oct 5 05:39 out.5 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 7440 Oct 5 05:39 out.6 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 151 Oct 5 05:39 out.7 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users0 Oct 5 05:39 out.8 -rw-r--r-- 1 herb Domain Users 151 Oct 5 05:39 out.9 Files of size 7440 have the normal expected output, the one with 0 length hung (needed to kill the grep), and the rest had the output truncated within the first three lines. Piping into "cat" instead of "grep ." can also show the problem, but far less frequently (maybe 3 out of 500 times). I have also seen the problem by simply redirecting the output of "cygcheck -s" into a file and even on the command line with no piping or redirecting. But those are far less reproducible. I'm hoping that the problem can be easily reproduced by others. But if not, please let me know what I can do to collect more information.

I thought I'd fixed it when I released 1.7-30 but obviously it's still there. The good news is that I can reproduce the problem 100% of the time in gdb so I finally was able to track down the root cause. I'm generating a snapshot with a fix now. The fix is in cygwin1.dll, not cygcheck.exe, so you'll need to download and install that. If you can verify that the snapshot works, I'll generate a new 1.7 release. cgf -- 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/

The snapshot looks good to me. I can no longer reproduce the problem with the cygwin1-20081005.dll. Thanks for the quick fix.

dnsutils package
Hi, has the "dnsutils" package not yet been ported to Cygwin? I think the "dig" utility which I need for querying DNS entries is in this package. The Cygwin package search page at http://cygwin.com/packages/ finds neither dig nor dnsutils. OTOH the package search page at the Debian site http://www.debian.com/distrib/packages says "dig" is in the dnsutils package. -- 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/

An alternative is to build bind (ISC's bind: http://www.isc.org/sw/bind/) which builds with no problem out of the box under Cygwin. Or just get the binary distributed by ISC, which is a Windows native daemon and tools. -- René Berber -- 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/

The problem was reported months ago and I thought it was fixed in September but never actually announced it so no one ever tested it.

Yes. The problem is that your group is currently "mkpasswd". This indicates that the /etc/passwd (and possibly /etc/group) files should be rebuilt. See the man pages for mkpasswd and mkgroup then, for example, run mkpasswd -l [-d] > /etc/passwd mkgroup -l [-d] > /etc/group In addition, please note that the -d switch is necessary for domain users.

Cyrille clearly state that it happens only on the first run of the shell. I also have such beahaviour, and my group is clearly defined.
