I had set up anonymous ftp before and it was working find (probably 
around 1.3.6). Now on 1.3.9 it doesn't seem to be working right. I've 
checked and rechecked things in the ftpd(1) page to no avail. Checking 
the error log show me:

Event Type:	Error
Event Source:	ftpd
Event Category:	None
Event ID:	0
Date:

Time:

Description:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( ftpd ) cannot be found. 
The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or 
message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be 
able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help 
and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: 
ftpd : Win32 Process Id = 0x998 : Cygwin Process Id = 0xA78 : fcntl 
F_SETOWN: Invalid argument.

It's this F_SETOWN fcntl call that concerns me. Anybody have anonymous 
ftp working with Cygwin 1.3.9?

(BTW The ftp home directory is mounted from another Windows server - if 
that matters - it didn't used to! :-)
