(BTW, Sergey do you know exactly how to configure a user with User Manager to have login.exe working fine ?) I enter login name and password, which are ok, and I get : login: no shell: /bin/sh: Not owner in my /etc/passwd, I have : 'sysroot::500:0:::/bin/sh' among other things (sysroot is the name of the builtin NT administrator, renamed) telnetd : when running 'inetd -d /etc/inetd.conf' in one bash session, and running telnet (Sergey's telnet.exe) in another bash session, trying to connect on localhost, I got : telnet client side : Trying 127.0.0.1... setuid called, and it's not done yet. Connected to pathfinder.[...] Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. in bash session where inetd was started : .... someone wants telnet accept, ctrl 3 + Closing from 17 1022 execl /usr/local/libexec/in.telnetd 1022 reaped, status 0x100 Is anyone using telnetd successfully ? Any idea ? BTW, when I run rxvt, though it's apparently working fine, it does not source my $HOME/.bashrc file, and I also get several 'setuid called, and it's not done yet' (in the terminal where I start rxvt and also in the rxvt window itself)..... - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
