similar to: [PATCH] Update Cygwin service installer script for new Cygwin release

Hi, could somebody with checkin rights please apply the below patch? It would be helpful to have this in 5.9p1. I revamped the Cygwin-specific service installer script ssh-host-config. The actual functionality is the same, the revisited version is just more exact when it comes to check for problems which disallow to run certain aspects of the script. So, part of this script and the also

Seteuid now creates user token using S4U. We don't create a token from scratch anymore, so we don't need the "Create a process token" privilege. The service can run under SYSTEM again. --- contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config | 15 +++++---------- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config b/contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config index

Hi, would you mind to apply the below patch? It fixes Cygwin's ssh-host-config script in various ways: - Remove old code to remove the "sshd/22" entry from /etc/services. This code fixes a problem which only existed in installations which are more than 10 years old. - Handle the StrictMode setting interactively. - Fix regular expressions looking for white spaces. - Make the

Hi, The below patch fixes two problems. The first one is a better support for automated scripts. The old script had a logic problem when it came to asking the caller for the user account to use for the sshd service. The second is a problem in the usage of eval.

Hi, the below patch to contrib/cygwin is a major rework to allow various changes in the installation process on Cygwin machines. The important changes are: - New Makefile, providing a `cygwin-postinstall' target which allows to create a base installation as in the Cygwin distribution, which should be run right after a `make install'. - Additional information given in the README

Hi, as the subject says, the below patch just simplifies the host key generation in the Cygwin-specific ssh-host-config script. Rather than testing and generating each key, call ssh-keygen -A.

Hi, could somebody apply the below patch to contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config? The patch solves a problem with the way, the Windows pendant of the /etc/services file is used. This file has (obviously) CRLF line endings. The ssh-host-config file tries to accomodate that when adding the ssh service entries but I never reviewed this functionality in the light of some major changes in the Cygwin DLL.

Hi, could somebody with checkin rights please apply the below patch? It modernizes and improves readability of the Cygwin README file (which hasn't been updated for ages), drops unsupported OSes from the ssh-host-config help text, and drops an unneeded option from ssh-user-config. Thanks in advance, Corinna Index: contrib/cygwin/README

Hi, could somebody with checkin rights please apply the below patch to the Cygwin service creator script? It patches a problem when using an existing account to start the sshd service. In that case the script so far doesn't make sure that the user has th right to logon as a service.

Hi, the following patch changes two files in the contrib/cygwin subdir: It changes the Cygwin specific README file which adds some hints related to the new feature to switch user context without password (which means using public key and/or rhosts authentication). Some old stuff is erased. The changes to ssh-host-config are intended to allow an easier startup for users which are new to Cygwin

Copy files from Windows to Windows, preserving Windows ACLs? If so, you might be better off using rsync to copy the files and another tool to copy the ACLs. Since rsync is meant first and foremost for Unix-like systems,

Hi, I have added two features to the ssh-host-config script which is used in Cygwin installations to prepare the host based OpenSSH configuration. Now it cares for a /var/log/lastlog file if it's not already installed (Thanks to "Karl M" <karlm30 at hotmail.com> for that patch) and it now asks the user if s/he wants to install sshd as a NT service and, if so, installs it.

Hi, We will probably do an openssh-5.5p1 release soon, mainly for the sshd_config:AuthorizedKeysFile bug, but containing a few other small patches too. If you have any portability fixes that need to go in then

Hi, the following patch checks if OpenSSH is running under a Cygwin version >= 1.3.2 which allows switching user context without password. Otherwise sshd allows changing the user context only if password authentication is used as it was before.

Hi, the attached patch file contains two patches in one: - contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config: Create sshd_config according to latest changes. - openbsd-compat/bsd-cygwin_util.c: Rewrite a bit to allow easier retrieval of Cygwin capabilities from version number (uname). For Cygwin versions beginning with API minor version 56 assume ntsec being on by default. Thanks in advance for applying

Hi, the following patch patches the files in contrib/cygwin. The changes are necessary to allow a better support of privilege separation. On NT machines the script asks now if it should create a user called "sshd" and all that. Additionally it creates the /etc/ssh_config and /etc/sshd_config files follows the latest versions. Would you mind to apply this to the official OpenSSH

Dear list, I'm using rsync via CYGWIN (winxp) compu to access our SUSE linux station for backup purposes. I would like to run this regularly, via BAT files, however the password stays necessary (prompt), after using a -pasword-file=/. There is no error message but password stays necessary. rsync -avzuC --delete --password-file=/cygdrive/d/test/test.txt /cygdrive/d/test/

Hi, is it possible to apply the below patch before 3.8.1p1 comes out? Due to a posting on the Cygwin mailing list it turned out, that the prerequisites to allow public key authentication where to tight. Since Cygwin version 1.5.x the so called `ntsec' setting isn't require anymore to allow switching user context without password. The below patch to bsd-cygwin_util.c fixes the test for
