nfs server not quite working

I was wondering if anyone else run into this and knows the cure. I'm exporting multiple drives off my Windows PC to a Solaris machine, the setup seems symmetrical to me but only the C: drive mounts, the other drives give a "Stale NFS file handle error". Ta, Kev. Windows XP Pro/SP2 (dkcw95):

The state of cramfs support

Hello. What is the state of cramFS support? In the archive I did find http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-05/msg01726.html That is basicly all I found, has anything been done since then? Jeormie -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://

New cygwin1.dll release urgently needed

Hi, I have been updating cygwin. There is the following problem: bunzip2.exe does not function properly with cygwin1.dll-15.13-1. I does function with the snapshot 20040311, but if you have updated to cygwin1.dll-15.13-1 you can't expand the 20040311 snapshot. I had to use an old cygwin1.dll of 20

Problem with /usr/share/info/dir file.

Hi, There is a bothering behavior of the updating of some packages (e.g. tetex-bin), that install their own /usr/share/info/dir file, overwriting the existing one. I for example use the info/dir file to list the very large amount of software that the cygwin distribution contains and some other pro

Re: Unable to build Cygwin port of Exim 4.43-1

You need the minires-devel package (use setup). You may also run into another issue: with the 1.5.13 there is an aliasing issue for setpriority (in os.c-cygwin). That's fixed in 4.50, which I am about to release. Pierre At 10:40 AM 3/12/2005 -0500, Douglas Quebbeman wrote: >Hello, > >I have do

Unable to build Cygwin port of Exim 4.43-1

Hello, I have downloaded cygwin and the patched sources for exim 4.43-1 in hope of later applying the exiscan-acl patch. But I wanted to make sure I could do a basic build first. I am getting this error: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/src/exim-4.43-1 $ make >>> Creating links to source files... >>> New

Re: g++ & rand() in Cygwin

Hi Alex - You should seed the rng first before using it. Also, there are much better rngs out there than rand (though it's much better than it used to be). I tend to plug for Mersenne Twister which is both faster, produces better random numbers, and can be used in a parallel programming environ
