================================================================ Dear Bug Team! When running gnuserv/gnuclient on Cygwin, gnuclient dies after a short while and then takes gnuserv with it. After investigating the problem, I tried the following patch which helped. I haven't seen gnuclient die anymore. Gnuclient died with the messages Connection reset by peer and unable to read the reply from the server. And when clicking "Done" or typing C-x # in the XEmacs buffer that was created on behalf of gnuclient, gnuserv produced the message Connection aborted. (The messages are from memory, I have replaced gnuclient with the patched version.) --- gnuslib.c~ 2001-07-25 09:47:26.000000000 +0200 +++ gnuslib.c 2003-05-09 10:22:50.000000000 +0200 ＠＠ -411,7 +411,7 ＠＠ send_string(s,EOT_STR); /* make sure server gets string */ -#if !defined (linux) && !defined (_SCO_DS) +#if !defined (linux) && !defined (_SCO_DS) && !defined (__CYGWIN__) /* * shutdown is completely hozed under linux.
