any ssh for android that can connect to cygwin's sshd?
I am able to connect to a server running Cygwin's sshd from a computer running debian openssh.. or from a computer running cygwin. So the server is set fine. If the key fails it prompts for a password, i've set the server's sshd_config is set like that. But the Android apps that i've tried e.g. 'better terminal' and perhaps juicessh, tend to use Dropbear ssh, and dropbear ssh gives an error when trying to connect. It says ssh: Connection to user@host:123 exited: No matching algo hostkey maybe the encryption algorithms don't match, but i'm no expert Is there anything I can do at cygwin's sshd end.. Or, any command line ssh client for android that is known to be able to connect to it? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

And to rule out my WLAN, the one other computer on my WLAN can connect to my cygwin sshd server. I tried moving the cygwin sshd server to port 22 instead of 222. But same error from ssh, and packet capture still showed TCP Dup ACK and I see TCP Retransmission.. but also, this time I see from the packet capture screenshot here, that it got as far as some SSH protocol. But still same error at same point, from dropbear ssh on my mobile. I don't have another device running dropbear ssh to try. http://i.imgur.com/VZpCr95.png I will try reinstalling cygwin on the machine in question.

And i'll try >turning the router off and on first I was finding VX ConnectBot crashed on it. So none of the apps were working to connect me. I didn't restart the router, but I did reinstall cygwin and that fixed it. So, for some reason the cygwin sshd server was eating some packets and cygwin needed to be reinstalled. I renamed the cygwin directory and cygwin package directories, and reinstalled cygwin. Though thanks for your responses I foudn out that indeed dropbear ssh does support cygwin sshd, and I have the option of the terminal ide keyboard too. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
command line smtp client / command line email?
what are my options for a command line smtp client in cygwin? I'd want to specify smtp server and from address. I'd like TLS/SSL to be supported by the command sendmail , doesn't look like it exists on cygwin and I know on *nix it shuts down any postfix server so I guess it mighttry to shut down any smtp server I have running. heirloom mailx looks good, but doesn't exist for cygwin.

reload ssh configuration without stopping and starting the service?
I know linux has ways to reload configuration files without restarting a service. Is there a way with cygwin's sshd to reload the configuration files without stopping and starting it.

tab autocomplete is going mad (waiting and giving a beep or being slow then displaying too many possibilities)
Tab autocomplete is going mad..
Either
A) It waits for a while, in which time I can't type anything, then it gives a
beep and exits, letting me type, but not displaying anything
or
B) It waits for a while, then says there are loads of possibilities
I'll demonstrate showing how it is for this directory.
First i'll show the directories contents in regular cmd.exe
Then i'll show the tab behaviour. There isn't much to show for case A(the case
of the beep). But i'll show for Case B(the long listing). And i'm sure if Case
A or B is solved, Case A and case B will be solved. So let's look at Case B(the
long listing).

The instructions in INSTALL seem standard, e.g. they don't mention netcat. it's just a standard set of instructions for doing ./configure and make. They mention ./configure.. What I meant was really there was no configure! What had happened was I downloaded some version without the "configure" file.. I went to the CVS repository http://netcat.cvs.sourceforge.net/netcat/netcat/ and clicked download GNU tarball and got netcat-netcat.tar.gz I should've clicked http://sourceforge.net/projects/netcat/files/latest/download?source=files and got netcat-0.7.1.tar.gz But since you mention "configure" existed, I then found the right one.

Many thanks that worked. and just prior to that, I tried what elliot said too, (the lesser clean!), make clean then make.. that worked too!

This link from 2006 mentions somebody looking for openbsd's version netcat http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-04/msg00490.html " .it's an openbsd fork off the original netcat that I never heard of before.

I would guess that maybe the threat of pulling the current nc, and replacing it, could be a bit of a disincentive to somebody looking to become a cygwin package maintainer of the openbsd version of the cygwin port.

Re: Making Unix like paths work when using java program from Cygwin
The java aspect looks like a red herring as not relevant to the problem. You want to run a *nix shell script and presumably don't want to write your own bat file doing the same job. I'm probably missing something but given that there's cygwin, and it's a *nux script, what about just editing the script for your computer, amending the paths in the script, with a find and replace, so /ABC/XYZ is replaced with /cygdrive/c/ABC/XYZ and running the script in cygwin. --- On Fri, 18/5/12, Earnie Boyd wrote: > From: Earnie Boyd > Subject: Re: Making Unix like paths work when using java program from Cygwin > To: cygwin > Date: Friday, 18 May, 2012, 15:58 > On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 9:22 AM, > Csaba Raduly wrote: > > On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 1:51 PM, Earnie Boyd wrote: > >> On Fri, May 18, 2012 at 4:56 AM, himoundary wrote: > >>> > >>> I am working in a team where everyone else has > a Linux/Mac OS X workstation, > >>> but I have a windows workstation.

I wasn't suggesting using /cygdrive/c in his java program. His java program is not so much a cygwin issue, as his shell script is. If his java program has file paths that need amending, then since you point out that a cygwin program could be used to help convert the paths in his java program, then, I see, the java program could be relevant to cygwin in that sense. Note java wouldn't understand "c:\blah\a.txt" it could have "c:\\blah\a.txt" though. A search and replace might be easier though, possibly using regex. How do you get cygpath to do make /v into c:\v ? $ cygpath -aw "/v" C:\cygwin\v and not that i'm suggesting it but out of curiousity, can cygpath take a file and convert any linux paths in it to windows paths? how? and if it can't then i'm not sure its use for this. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Rshd then validates the user using ruserok(3), which uses the file /etc/hosts.equiv and the .rhosts file found in the user's home directory. The -l option prevents ruserok(3) from doing any valida- tion based on the user's ``.rhosts'' file (unless the user is the superuser and the -h option is used.) If the -h option is not used, superuser accounts may not be accessed via this service at all. Looks like passwordless login doesn't work when you do -l So, you have to be logged in with a user of the same username as the machine you're logging into. (doesn't have to be the same password though). Then you don't need -l and so it will read .rhosts > > Is that normal, and which implementations of rsh launch > rlogin? BSD?

If no command is specified then rsh will log in on the remote system using rlogin. > And why won't it run when I add a command? > rexec runs locally with a command, but rsh doesn't. Unix power tools says "If the host is properly set up on the remote machine, then rsh will execute properly, and rlogin will no longer ask for a password when you try to connect to the remote machine. If not set up properly, then rlogin will prompt for a password, and rsh will fail with the message Permission Denied." I haven't tested this much but it seems a bit like rsh without -l, if it gets far enough, either goes in automatically, or says permission denied.. it won't prompt for a password. rexec will go in automatically, or prompt for a password. That aside, there are a number of things to check.. to try to get the logging in working. I did see errors like (I may make a mistake in which solution corresponds to which error) rcmd: 10.1.1.3:514: No error (rcmd 'no error' error I think is fixed by adding to /etc/hosts ) and rcmd: 10.1.1.3:514: Connection reset by peer ( I think was fixed by adding to /etc/hosts.allow ALL : tepa : allow <-- where tepa is an example name of the host) or the line ALL : 10.1.1. : allow ) and blob.lan: Connection refused (I think that was was 'cos inetd wasn't started, a bit pathetic but anyway) and select: protocol failure in circuit setup (I think this was when the firewall was preventing the rsh server from making a reverse connection to the client. ) $ cygcheck -l rsh-server /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rsh-server.README $cat /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/rsh-server.README ... Finally, on the *client* machine, you may need to allow a 'program exception' in your firewall for the rsh client. The rsh protocol allows the client to specify an additional port (other than 514) that the server will contact, to send stderr information. This port is random, but you need to allow incoming connections on your *client* machine at that port. Windows has no 'stateful' filters for the rsh protocol, so you need to allow the rsh program to 'answer' on any port: thus, a 'program exception'. e.g. . so, /etc/hosts, /etc/hosts.allow, /etc/hosts.deny, ~/.rhosts and the firewall opening the incoming ports and having the program exception ready for the reverse connection. one could do one line in /etc/hosts.
difficulty getting ddrescue to install properly
I've used ddrescue in the past but I can't seem to install it now! I ran https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe and installed ddrescue In the dropdown under choose packages, I choose "full" so they all show and I choose "ddrescue" it's 1.25-1 and I click it so it installs so it shows "keep". And I click next and it claims to install. I haven't always looked at the version in the past but that kind of procedure has always installed that and things in the past. But then here I can't get ddrescue to run! I'm on Win7. C:\cygwin>dir Volume in drive C has no label.
