== Cygwin ==
[http://cygwin.com/ cygwin]

GNU + Cygnus + Windows = cygwin

=== What Is Cygwin? ===

* Cygwin is a Linux-like environment for Windows. It consists of two parts: A DLL (cygwin1.dll) which acts as a Linux API emulation layer providing substantial Linux API functionality.
* A collection of tools which provide Linux look and feel.

The Cygwin DLL currently works with all recent, commercially released x86 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows, with the exception of Windows CE.

Note that the official support for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me will be discontinued with the next major version (1.7.0) of Cygwin.

=== What Isn't Cygwin? ===

* Cygwin is not a way to run native linux apps on Windows. You have to rebuild your application from source if you want it to run on Windows.
* Cygwin is not a way to magically make native Windows apps aware of UNIX ® functionality, like signals, ptys, etc. Again, you need to build your apps from source if you want to take advantage of Cygwin functionality.

== Basic Cygwin Installation ==

# Download Cygwin from http://www.cygwin.com/
#* https://www.cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe
#* https://www.cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe
# Execute setup.exe
# Select "Install from Internet"
# Root directory "C:\cygwin"
# Local Package Directory "C:\cygwin\install"
# Select "Direct Connection"
# Select Download URL - http://mirrors.kernel.org (http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/)
# The Installation will proceed
# Select desired packages, which can be done later.
# Copy setup.exe into the C:\cygwin\install folder for future use

Add c:\cygwin\bin to your PATH to be able to use Cygwin tools from 'cmd'.

== Packages ==

See [[Cygwin/Notes#Default Pacakges|Cygwin Default Pacakges]]

See [[Cygwin/Notes#Recommended Additional Packages|Cygwin Recommended Additional Packages]]

=== Command Line Package Installation ===

NOTE: On Windows 7, the shell has to be "Run As Administrator" to use setup.exe

Install additional packages:
# by package:
setup.exe -q -P [PACKAGE#1],[PACKAGE#2],[PACKAGE#N]

# by category:
setup.exe -q -C [CATEGORY#1],[CATEGORY#2],[CATEGORY#N]

# -q - quiet mode, unattended (does not ask questions)
# -P - install specific package
# -C - install all packages in category

Common packages to install: (within shell)
<pre>
cd /install
ln -s setup-x86_64.exe setup.exe

./setup.exe -q -P cron,\
cygrunsrv,shutdown,syslog-ng,sharutils,unzip,zip,vim,Perl,Python,bc,\
units,bind,curl,netcat,nc,nfs-server,openssh,ping,rsync,whois,ipcalc,util-linux,cpio,\
diffutils,gnupg,screen,time,links,lynx,wget,tree
</pre>

If you get this error, you are probably running Windows 7 with UAC. Run Cygwin terminal with "Run as administrator".
$ ./setup.exe -q -P wget
-bash: ./setup.exe: Permission denied

To just update packages:
cd /install
./setup.exe -q

=== Other Useful packages ===

* subversion
* git
* mercurial

./setup.exe -q -P subversion,git,mercurial

=== Missing Packages or Tools ===

Missing programs:
* killall
* nmap
* ntpdate
* mail
* sudo
* telnet

=== tio ===

./setup.exe -q -P gcc-core,make

wget https://github.com/tio/tio/releases/download/v1.20/tio-1.20.tar.xz
tar -avxf tio-1.20.tar.xz
cd tio-1.20
./configure
make && make install

# OR

./setup.exe -q -P gcc-core,make,autoconf,automake

git clone https://github.com/tio/tio.git
cd tio
## sh autogen.sh # throws errors
autoconf
./configure
make && make install

See [[Linux/tio]] for usage.

== services for Cygwin ==

List cygwin services:
cygrunsrv -L

Install service:
cygrunsrv -I [svc_name] ...

Remove service:
cygrunsrv -R [svc_name]

Example server installation (crond):
# -I is install with service name
# -p is program path
# -a is arguments
# -d is "Name"
# -f is "Description"
cygrunsrv -I crond -p /usr/sbin/cron.exe -a "-n" -u Administrator \
-d "Cygwin crond service" -f "Cygwin crond service"

See [[Cygwin Notes#cygrunsrv help|cygrunsrv help]]

== syslog for Cygwin ==

Install packages:
Admin - cygrunsrv # to make windows services
Admin - syslog-ng # syslog service
System - util-linux

Important Files:
/etc/syslog-ng.conf
/var/log/messages
/usr/share/doc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf.sample

Start/Stop Service:
net start syslog-ng
net stop syslog-ng

=== Wizard Install ===

Syslog Installation Wizard:
/usr/bin/syslog-ng-config

This will create the /etc/syslog-ng.conf using a simple and clean config file emedded in the syslog-ng-config script (not from syslog-ng.conf.sample).

See [[Cygwin Notes#syslog-ng-config output|syslog-ng-config output]]

See [[Cygwin Notes#syslog-ng.conf default|syslog-ng.conf default]]

=== Manual Install ===

Test service prior to installing Windows service, and fix any issues found:
/usr/sbin/syslog-ng.exe

$ /usr/sbin/syslog-ng.exe
Error opening configuration file; filename='/etc/syslog-ng.conf', error='No such
file or directory (2)'

Create /etc/syslog-ng.conf:
* See [[Cygwin Notes#syslog-ng.conf default|syslog-ng.conf default]]
* or See /usr/share/doc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf.sample

Install syslogd service:
# -I is install with service name
# -p is program path
# -a is arguments
# -d is "Name"
# -f is "Description"
cygrunsrv -I syslogd -p /usr/sbin/syslog-ng -a "-F --fd-limit 256" -d "Cygwin syslogd service" \
-f "Cygwin syslogd service"

== sshd for Cygwin ==

=== user creation ===

If you add users, make sure to run: [http://ist.uwaterloo.ca/~kscully/CygwinSSHD_W2K3.html]
mkpasswd -l >/etc/passwd

Example:
# net user root * /add
net user root test12 /add
net localgroup administrators root /add
mkpasswd -l >/etc/passwd
mkdir /home/root

=== typical commands ===

Reboot system
reboot -r now

=== Wizard Installation ===

Installation:
# /usr/bin/ssh-host-config
/usr/bin/ssh-host-config -y -w v
net start sshd
# add users

Typical Answers:
yes
yes
yes

no
yes
v
v

<pre>
$ ssh-host-config --help
usage: [OPTION]...

This script creates an OpenSSH host configuration.

Options:
--debug -d Enable shell's debug output.
--yes -y Answer all questions with "yes" automatically.
--no -n Answer all questions with "no" automatically.
--cygwin -c <options> Use "options" as value for CYGWIN environment var.
--port -p <n> sshd listens on port n.
--user -u <account> privileged user for service.
--pwd -w <passwd> Use "pwd" as password for privileged user.
--privileged On Windows NT/2k/XP, require privileged user
instead of LocalSystem for sshd service.
</pre>

See [[Cygwin Notes#ssh-host-config output|ssh-host-config output]]

ssh-host-config and ssh-user-config

=== Manual Installation ===

touch /etc/sshd_config
echo "UsePrivilegeSeparation no" >> /etc/sshd_config
ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key

# run server
/usr/sbin/sshd

---

<pre>
$ /usr/sbin/sshd
/etc/sshd_config: No such file or directory
</pre>

To fix:
touch /etc/sshd_config

<pre>
$ /usr/sbin/sshd.exe
Privilege separation user sshd does not exist
</pre>

To fix:
echo "UsePrivilegeSeparation no" >> /etc/sshd_config

<pre>
$ /usr/sbin/sshd.exe
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh_host_dsa_key
Disabling protocol version 2. Could not load host key
sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting.
</pre>

To fix: (generate host keys)
ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key

ssh-keygen.exe -t dsa -f /etc/ssh_host_dsa_key -N ""
ssh-keygen.exe -t rsa1 -f /etc/ssh_host_key -N ""
ssh-keygen.exe -t rsa -f /etc/ssh_host_rsa_key -N ""

=== Cygwin is alternative to OpenSSH on Windows ===

Network Simplicity - OpenSSH on Windows:
:"This project is shut down, but Michael Johnson has created a follow-up project to continue the work. You can get information at his [http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/ website]."

:"This OpenSSH project is shutting down. I no longer have the time to maintain a package that is, for the most part, unnecessary due to improvements in the installation process of [http://www.cygwin.com/ Cygwin]. If you need some starter info on getting an OpenSSH server installed in the cygwin environment try [http://tech.erdelynet.com/cygwin-sshd.html this site], or the cygwin mailing list."

== crond for Cygwin ==

Important Files:
* windows crond service (See [[Cygwin Notes#crond registry service|crond registry service]]
* /var/cron/tabs/[USER]
* /var/log/cron.log
* ~/cron.log

=== Tools ===

Create user crontab:
crontab -e

See cron log events (including windows event log):
/usr/bin/cronevents

Start/Stop service:
# service is 'cron' if using cygrunsrv
# or 'crond' if manually
net start cron
net stop cron

=== Wizard Install ===

Cron service configuration: (See [[Cygwin Notes#cron-config output]])
cron-config

Suggestion: rename the "Display Name" to "CYGWIN Cron daemon" to match the "CYGWIN" prefix of the syslog-ng and sshd services. This will not break the service. May have to reboot to see the change in the MMC.

Start service:
net start sshd

=== Manually Install ===

Run cron first to make sure there are no issues:
$ /usr/sbin/cron.exe D

Note: if you do this before running as a service you may get this issue:
/usr/sbin/cron: can't lock /var/run/cron.pid, otherpid may be 3796: Resource temporarily unavailable

Install crond service:
# -I is install with service name
# -p is program path
# -a is arguments
# -d is "Name"
# -f is "Description"
cygrunsrv -I crond -p /usr/sbin/cron.exe -a "-n" -u Administrator \
-d "Cygwin crond service" -f "Cygwin crond service"

Start service:
net start crond

== nmap for Cygwin ==

"Download nmap for windows at http://download.insecure.org/nmap/dist/nmap-3.95-win32.zip and extract it at /cygwin/bin. do the command "chmod +x+r nmap.exe" and use it. " [http://www.linuxcompatible.org/Has_anyone_perhaps_got_nmap_working_on_Cygwin_t32982.html]

# Download and install Nmap from http://nmap.org/download.html
# Create a link to namp in the /bin directory:
ln -s /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Nmap/nmap.exe nmap

== Cygwin/X ==

[http://x.cygwin.com/ Cygwin/X]

"Whether or not you already have Cygwin installed, you can add Cygwin/X to your installation by downloading the latest setup.exe, running setup, and selecting the 'xorg-x11-base' package from the 'X11' category."

== NFS for Cygwin ==

[http://www.csparks.com/CygwinNFS/index.xhtml Cygwin NFS Server HOWTO]

=== Wizard Installation ===

nfs-server-config

The available mount points are listed here:
/etc/exports

To start NFS after running the nfs-server-config:
net start portmap
net start nfsd
net start mountd

After making changes to /etc/exports:
net stop mountd
net start mountd

From the client, to show mount points:
showmount -e [SERVERHOST]

From the client, to mount a mount point:
mount [SERVERHOST]:/cygdrive /mnt/[MOUNTPOINT]

To add cygdrive C:
SERVER
# ln -s /cygdrive/c /nfs
# vi /etc/exports:
/nfs (ro,no_root_squash)
# net stop mountd ; net start mountd

CLIENT (both link or full path work)
# mount [SERVERHOST]:/nfs /mnt
or
# mount [SERVERHOST]:/cygdrive/c /mnt
# umount /mnt

== Python pip ==

Installation:
wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
python get-pip.py

note: On Cygwin64 it will fail silently. To get it to work:
./setup.exe -q -P libuuid-devel,binutils

Usage:
pip install pep8

== Mercurial ==

== 64bit vs 32bit ==

How to tell which shell you are in?

On a 64bit system, 'uname -a' within Cygwin will tell you the architecture of Cygwin, not the system:

64bit Cygwin: (x86_64)
{noformat}
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-10.0 alienware 2.2.1(0.289/5/3) 2015-08-20 11:42 x86_64 Cygwin
{noformat}

32bit Cygwin: (i686)
{noformat}
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-10.0-WOW alienware 2.2.1(0.289/5/3) 2015-08-20 11:40 i686 Cygwin
{noformat}

== Mirror ==

Mirror cygwin:
rsync -avrt rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/ .

List of Mirrors - https://cygwin.com/mirrors.html#mirroradmin

== Issues ==

=== cygwin1.dll was not found ===

Error:
bash.exe - Unable To Locate Component

This application has failed to start because cygwin1.dll was not found.
Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

This dll should be in the C:\cygwin\bin folder. If it is not, then the installation was corrupt. To resolve, delete the Cygwin folder and reinstall Cygwin.

=== vim in Cygwin sucks ===

Try using the .vimrc to bring it to Linux standards. See [[vim]]
