Cygwin 1.7.0-20 (was Re: Cygwin 1.7.0-19 (was Re: New Cygwin 1.7.0-18 in release-2))


I just uploaded 1.7.0-20.  It contains the following important changes:

- Fix for the problem with native Win32 apps described in this thread:
  http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2008-07/msg00457.html

- Reworked mkpasswd and mkgroup tools including the documentation.
  The usage changed and you have some additional options to create
  unique usernames especially for multi-domain environments.

  You can now call mkpasswd and mkgroup without any -l or -d parameter
  and both tools choose by themselves what information to print, depending
  on the machine being a domain member machine or not.

  This should result in a matching change to the base-passwd package for
  1.7.  The /etc/postinstall/passwd-grp.sh script should call both tools
  without any parameter. 
  
  Could you please change that for us, John?
