I'll be assuming the Cygwin infrastructure tasks previously handled by
cgf. However, cgf had access to root where I only have access to
cygwin-admin, so there are a number of files for which I do not have the
necessary permissions.
For starters, could someone please
1) chown cygwin:cygstage /sourceware/cygwin-staging/.ssh/authorized_keys.orig /sourceware/cygwin-staging/mkpkgdir
2) create a mysql account with which I could use to update the Cygwin
mirror database without root access?
TIA,
Yaakov

Done.

I don't know how to do this. I didn't think that mysql paid attention
to whether it was invoked by root, but there is a lot I don't know about
mysql.

Thanks, Ian. There are a couple more files with too strict permissions
and we're just starting to find them. Could you perhaps also change
the following files under /sourceware1/www/sourceware/htdocs/cygwin
to cygwin-admin ownership as well?
setup-2.850.x86.exe
setup-2.850.x86_64.exe
setup-x86.exe
setup-x86_64.exe
There may me a lot more, but, as I said, we're just beginning to get a
grip.

Oh. Who knows more about mysql so we can change that?
Thanks,

FChE is helping me off-list with mysql.
