Problem compiling a multicast program

Hello everybody! I tried to compile a program which uses setsockopt(... IP_MULTICAST_LOOP ...). Works fine with Linux and AIX. Compilation on Win32 works, but if running I get a error from this line - address invalid. Seeing that there are several include files having IP_MULTICAST_LOOP defined a

Origin of gcc sources

Hello, guys! Could you please clarify what's the origin of gcc-2.95.3-5 is? Is it gcc CVS? Or what? I found that it strongly differs from gcc-2.95.3 release from GNU... Thank you in advance, Ildar Mulyukov -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting:

possible worm in cygwin

Hello I've searched around for more about this but only found a message on comp.security.ssh which said it might be a false alarm but was not conclusive. Whilst doing a Full SystemScan, I got a message from Norton Antivirus "The file D:\cygwin\bin\cygz.dll is infected with the Backdoor.EggHea

Compiling of xinetd under cygwin (contrib)

Hello all, I am trying to build xinetd 2.3.3 so it could be possible to use it under cygwin as it is a more secure inetd replacement. After succesfully building and configuring it I encountered errors which I am not able to debug myself. I have also searched cygwin mailing list which did not br

od

Hi, I created at test file with 4 characters in it: HTTP Then, I run od -bcx and I get: 110 124 124 120 012 000 H T T P \n \0 5448 5054 000a You can see that the hex values in the last line are reversed. I think they should be 4854 5450 000a. Has anyone else noticed this?

offline installation

Hi, I'd like to install Cygwin, but I don't have internet access from my Windows System. Ok, I'll be honest, I don't *want* to have any network connection when running windows. So I'd like to install Cygwin offline. I was looking for information on which Files I have to download, where to place

CVS as pserver & modules file is not supported

I have drafted a basic HOWTO on :pserver: with Cygwin. It is currently awaiting verification before finding its way into the CVS docs. I personally recommend following Chuck's advice (which he's supplied repeatedly to various flavours of the same question). If, however, anyone wants to try my p

Cesar, The quoting is irrelevant in this case. An ISO 8601 date string (even a full-precision one including seconds) does not include characters special to the shell. I have tried this and it seems to work on my system, with one exception: Some old directories are included even if they do not

Thanks for the nudge. After seeing your mail, I poked around pyconfig.h and found the USE_DL_IMPORT define. Anyway, if you're linking to Cygwin Python, -DUSE_DL_IMPORT on the gcc line eliminates those informational "Warnings", at least from the Python library. Presumably, the distutils package se

Registry freedom
