From: ianc AT kiwiplan DOT co DOT nz (Ian Collins) Subject: All network ports in use 14 Oct 1998 14:34:47 -0700 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain To: "Gnu-Win32 (E-mail)" I have finally managed to link up a cygwinb19.dll. (That was a mission, which I now have documented - and will distribute if anyone is interested). The only code I have changed is in winsup: fhandler_tty.h NTTYS from 16 to 64. In addition, I have installed Sergeys tty.diff patch, and also used Sergeys ps.cc code from his web page. Some questions: I am still getting "All network ports in use" after 15 telnet connections. I tried a fresh reboot, and started telnetting again. It allocated tty1, tty2, ... tty15 and then I get the error message on the next telnet connection. If I then start a bash session on the actual server, I get "No free tty available!". In fact, I tried a fresh reboot again, and tried to open multiple bash sessions on the server, and got the same problem (ie., tty1 ... tty15 OK, then splat). IDEAS PLEASE!!!! The next question is general configuration: When I made the source, the cygwin dll was created as /usr/src/obj/winsup/new-cygwindevo.dll. When I did a make install, this WAS NOT installed into the /Cygnus/B19 tree. So I copied it manually to /Cygnus/B19/H-i386-cygwin32/cygwinb19.dll. Whenever I did anything after that (e.g., ps, telnet, ...), I got an NT error saying that cygwinb19.dll was not a valid dll. I then moved cygwinb19.dll to cygwindevo.dll (on a whim), and everything worked. (Except for > 15 sessions). How do I make winsup create a cygwinb19.dll instead of a cygwindevo.dll?, and why didn't make install install the winsup stuff? (I had to copy the winsup/tools executables to the bin directory as well). Hoping this made a vague sort of sense.
