From: sos AT prospect DOT com DOT ru (Sergey Okhapkin) Subject: CoolView released... 16 Jul 1997 02:33:55 -0700 Approved: cygnus DOT gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Distribution: cygnus Message-ID: <01BC91E5.F67B3820.cygnus.gnu-win32@sos> Original-To: "'gnu-win32'" Encoding: 35 TEXT Original-Sender: owner-gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Hi! - NT only: new family of exec() calls - sexec/sexecl etc - the same as exec() family, but runs a process in the security context of the specified user. The first argument (hToken) is a primary (not impersonation) token of the logged on user. - CTRL_LOGOFF_EVENT is ignored by cygwin apps now. It's neccessary to run cygwin app as NT service. - fixed a problem with socket inheritance on Windows 95. The archive remote.tar.gz contains a remote access suite for cygwin - rxvt X terminal emulator (You need cygwin-compiled X11R6.3 distribution to be installed to /usr/X11R6.3 to run rxvt), inetd, telnetd and login. The login program is for NT only. Unapck the archive to /usr directory. How to run inetd: Windows 95: rename /usr/local/bin/login.w95 to /usr/local/bin/login. Run /usr/local/sbin/inetd -d. WARNING: provided "login" script does not makes any authentication of remote user! Write Your own login program. Windows NT: remove "Simple TCP/IP services" (if any) - inetd have the same functionality built-in. Start /usr/local/sbin/inetd as a service using srvany utility from Windows NT Resource Kit, or freeware AutoexNT utility. Inetd should be started with "-d" option (see corresponding manuals how to provide command line options for started applications). You will have no easy ability to stop inetd service running without -d option (kill from resource kit will help you). The account of a service must have a valid cygwin's mount table. That's all... Sorry, but I have no money to continue a work just for my pleasure...
