I setup rsh by putting the client's IP in server:/etc/hosts, and the
hostname in server:/etc/hosts.equiv. /etc/hosts is a symlink to
/cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32/drivers/etc/hosts.
Over the LAN , responses take about 1 second.
If I dial into the server using PPP, the response time grows to 50 sec

I reported a related problem a few weeks ago and then reported a fix for
this last week.
Unfortunately, I haven't seen any response from the maintainers--perhaps I
reported this to the wrong list...
Did you start the cron daemon (as some other user?) before creating a
crontab? If yes, then that

Greetings, Cygwinners.
Recently, cron has been giving me trouble on several machines. My user
'eagle' does not have the correct permissions to rename the tab file (or
modify anything in /var/cron).
I looked at the nt permissions of the /var/cron/tab direct and it is only
modifiable by the user

I just tried v2.185 of the new setup.exe, and I noticed a potential
glitch.
If you specify an alternative URL and you do not type it perfectly during
your first attempt (like you forget the trailing slash), it's not easy to
modify your entry--it seems like you can't add another entry with the sa
I'd like to keep a local copy of the latest cygwin packages. I'm sure I
could just ftp everything from mirrors.rcn.net each night, but I'd much
rather use rsync (or something comparable) and spare everyone the waste.
My link is so modest so it would be pointless to mirror the content to
others.
I'm putting together a modified distrobution of CYGWIN so that I can
easily install just the packages that I want, including some custom
packages. I wrote a script to create the setup.ini, but I'm not yet
satisfied because when I execute setup.exe most of the packages are set
for 'skip'. The setu
