Hi, Jon et al,

Thank you.  When I use sftp to connect to cygwin@cygwin.com (as per
the instructions at https://cygwin.com/package-upload.html), I do
not see the file "!packages".  Consequently, when I try to upload my
trader package, as soon as I try to copy across any tar file, the
connection is closed.  Is the missing "!packages" file an oversight,
or am I simply being too eager and the file will be created in due
course? :-)

Yours truly,

John Zaitseff

The !packages files are updated by a separate process which runs at 0400 
UTC daily (mkpkgdir, which is a bit of a misnomer now, as it's only 
remaining useful function is to identify for removal the upload 
directories of maintainers who have given up all their packages)

But the !packages file is only there for historical and informational 
purposes, it's not involved in the upload authorization.

Furthermore, the restriction is not applied to the filenames you can 
upload, but to the processing we do on them after the sftp session has 
closed, so I think something else must be the cause of your connection 
being closed.

I also had problems with sftp, but none with lftp, or cygport <pkg> upload:
the last should be considered preferred nowadays, as it handles ssh auth, lftp
transfer, and setting flag files, and may be updated to accommodate any calm
requirements change.

Make life easier with appropriate settings in ~/.cygport.conf:

	SSH_KEY=...	# for upload
	DISTDIR=...	# for download
	SMTP_...=...	# for announce

Take care. Thanks, Brian Inglis, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Thanks.  Using lftp from my Linux system worked.  I'll try cygport
in my Windows VMs on the next release of my package.
