The important features in brief ================================ - inetd: Under W9X inetd can be started from a shell prompt or from the autostart folder. Under NT/W2K inetd must be started from service manager. It must not be started via SRVANY but it has two new options to install or remove it as service: inetd --install-as-service inetd --remove-as-service When you already have an older version of inetd installed, please remove the service before installing the new one. After you have installed inetd it will be started automatically on reboot. Manually starting and stopping is possible via net start inetd net stop inetd Current caveat: inetd is visible twice in the process list. This is currently needed to work correctly with the service manager. This should be solved in a future release. If you don't start inetd as service under LocalSystem but under another account, you have to care that that account has several user rights set in the user manager resp. local/domain security policy mmc snap in: "Act as part of the operating system" "Replace process level token" "Increase quotas" "Logon as a service" Note that administrators do not have all that user rights set by default! For all application started via NT/W2K service manager under LocalSystem account, the following restrictions apply: - The environment variable CYGWIN must be either set in the system environment to be active from start on or you can set CYGWIN thru the registry: Under the key HKLM\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\Program Options create a key of type REG_SZ (String) named like the full DOS path to the application, eg. "C:\usr\bin\inetd.exe" and with the value equal to the preferred CYGWIN settings, eg "binmode tty ntsec". - The system environment variable PATH must contain the path to the directory which contains the cygwin1.dll. - No user mount point is valid anymore! You have to install all your mount points in the system mount table. This doesn't change after you have logged in to a normal user account eg. via telnet/rlogin. It's possible that we can use the user mounts as soon as somebody contributes a patch to login and ftp that allows loading a user hive into the registry after authentication. -- =^..^= gerrit.haase@t-online.de PGP-Key: 0x28A05137 [875C 745E 01CF 8A34 2767 BE39 305E 5261 28A0 5137] -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
