I ran the cygwin setup.exe to install inet_utils, and found that a good number
of cygwin apps got upgraded without my asking it to. I then found every
Cygwin app calling the error
"main] ? 2988 shared_info::initialize: size of shared memory region
>changed from 21008 to 47112"
After some judicious Googling, I found the following message explaining the
problem as running two different versions of Cygwin at the same time:
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-01/msg00436.html
My only question is, how do I remedy this? Do I need to uninstall and
reinstall everything? Is there a quick & easy way to clean this up wtihout
such a major overhaul?
All I really wanted was a telnet client for cygwin....
btw, if anyone responds, please CC my email on the reply - I am not on the
cygwin mailing list.
Thanks much,
Eric
