Changes in 1.3.2-29: - "The return of syslogd" release. Beginning with version 1.5.15, Cygwin started to support syslogging to syslogd. To install syslogd, run the new syslogd-config script which creates the necessary files to run syslogd and will ask you if it should install syslogd as service under the SYSTEM account. This is the preferred way to install syslogd since it will create all files with enough access rights for SYSTEM. ====================================================================== PLEASE read /usr/share/doc/Cygwin-inetutils-1.3.2.README and the syslogd man page as well as the syslog.conf man page before installing syslogd and, that's most important, before starting to complain on the Cygwin mailing list. ====================================================================== If syslogd doesn't start, that's either a permission problem on the files and directories syslogd tries to access (/etc/syslog.conf, /dev, /var/log), or it's a fault in the /etc/syslog.conf file. In the former case, note that syslogd is running under the SYSTEM account, so use setfacl(1) to give enough permissions to SYSTEM. In the latter case, first check if you used spaces instead of tabs. Replace all spaces outside comments by tabs. However, the syslogd-config script usually takes care of the permissions. Bugfixes in this release: - Don't permute arguments in rsh. - Fix weird UTMPX usage in telnetd/sys_term.c. ========================================================================= IMPORTANT NOTE: - When updating inetutils, take care that syslogd.exe, inetd.exe and subsequent processes don't run anymore. Otherwise the update will fail. ========================================================================= To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.
