Stackdump trace - problem and patch

2005-01-01 Thread Jon A. Lambert
I was having this difficulty debugging a crashed application. I was using Cygwin environmental variable error_start to either call dumper or gdb. Both a core dump and invoking gdb didn't show anything relevant to my application. I tried various means of examining and setting the registers in the

When attempting to edit a *writeable* file of "zero" lines but 53 MB in size (no newlines), vi appears to hang. Ctrl-C is followed by the response W10: Warning: Changing a readonly file following which it appears that one is editing a new file. Quitting without writing succeeds.

2005-01-01 Thread Sameer Tupe
Hi, I am having SSHD running on my machine and i am using CORE FTP light to connect to my server. I am able to connect but problem here is after successful connect i can go to any place in C:\cygwin. Even guest login can access home/Administrator directory which is highly undesirable for me.
