less 436-1 segfault in both XP & NT; less 382-1 works fine

Hi folks, I've just installed the latest cygwin base system to a clean, fully updated Windows XP running in Virtual PC on my Mac. Things appear to be working fine except for consistent reproducible errors with less (436-1). Here are some sample results: $ less --> Missing filename ("l

Re: 'cp' utility bug when .exe file exist.

Ill throw in my two cents. I don't want to overwrite an existing file accidentally. Ie if I ls > foo and that writes to foo.exe I would be frustrated. This hasn't happened to me yet so it might not be to big of a problem. It seems a bit odd that the behavior would change if there is a file in t

Ignored Permissions

If I set the permissions of a file to be read only I can still delete it, or modify it w/out warning. eg. touch test.txt chmod 444 test.txt echo "what" >> test.txt In ubuntu I get an error, in cygwin it just modifies the file. This is an administrator acct if that affects the issue. I am using

ssh-host-config Vista and --yes do not run unattended

can be run unattended on Vista. I hardcoded a password into ssh-host-config because the -w option to ssh-host-config doesn't seem to create the same kind of user.  It would probably be better to modify ssh-host-config so that the -w option works with the Vista user creation. --Ben Smith ***

Quantum LTO 4 tape drive and Cygwin 1.7?

Sequential SCSI\RAW Is there any way to access this device using tar from cygwin? Can I specify Windows device paths with 1.7? If so, how would I identify the path to the device? Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks, Jeff -- Jeffrey C. Smith
