RE: [ros-dev] Security policy for FAT partition driver?

Hi: Well that's right until you try to access an encrypted file system. regards Waldo ________________________________ From: ros-dev-bounces(a)reactos.com on behalf of Mike Swanson Sent: Tue 5/10/2005 6:30 PM To: ReactOS Development List Subject: Re: [ros-dev] Security policy for FAT partition driver? Philip: Any filesystem is plenty insecure if you are accessing it via a bootable CD-ROM or other such measures. Also, ext2 already has a journal, it's called ext3. -- Mike _______________________________________________ Ros-dev mailing list Ros-dev(a)reactos.com http://reactos.com:8080/mailman/listinfo/ros-dev

CIDHandles bug ?
by open.proyects＠gmail.com 11 May '05

11 May '05

Hello, I am playing with DebugView from SysInternals and i noticed that ROS KeBugChecks in NtOpenProccess (line 878): if (ClientId->UniqueThread) { /* Get the Process */ if (ClientId->UniqueThread == (HANDLE)-1) KEBUGCHECK(0); <===== HERE DPRINT("Opening by Thread ID: %x\n", ClientId->UniqueThread); Status = PsLookupProcessThreadByCid(ClientId, &Process, &Thread); DPRINT("Found: %x\n", Process); It looks like that UniqueThread holds value -1. I look in NtCreateThread and it has CID handle creation implemented (PsCreateCidHandle and friends ...) I only get KeBugCheck with DebugView (another exes run properly). If you force a false evaluation (for example: if ((ClientId->UniqueThread)&&(0))) NtOpenProcess does a LookUp by proccess cid and DebugView run fine Any idea?

It'd be interesting to see one develop a filesystem for ReactOS, but AS a filesystem designed explicitly for the OS itself. It could be called "ROSfs" or something similar.

Short term Samba and Samba-Tng are going to be ported to Mingw so they can run on Windows and ReactOS. Long term there does need to be a intigration plan. I think we can wrap smbd in a dummy Server service but I have not done much research on the intigration part yet. Right now I just want to get the damn things built and sharing files. Samba is a lot more besides just the filesharing module.....Its ms-rpc, network printer spooling, wins and network winlogin/Active Directory, etc..... Thanks Steven Yahoo!

I think what Boaz was talking about here was is the fact that the Samba team (tridge) are talking about porting Samba to the Windows environment for ROS. My (limited) understanding of this is it would be a 'real' emulation of cifs/netbt, not samba running in a unix environment via POSIX.

That seems to make perfect sense. Why would anyone need/want to use NTFS if they don't need to access existing NTFS drives? If they do have existing NTFS drives, then as Jonathan says, they should also have the driver from MS to access it.

Yes but Windows is case insensitive so matching the PSDK case is just a waste of time. Besides the rest of the w32api is in lower case so anyone importing a project on mingw-linux already has to adjust the case. If there are no objections I will change the GDIplus headers and the source for the stub dll. Thanks Steven Yahoo! Mail Stay connected, organized, and protected.

Hi, --- chorns(a)svn.reactos.com wrote: > Re-add local w32api changes > Added files: > trunk/reactos/w32api/include/GdiPlus.h This has bothered me for a while. Can we make the filenames all lowercase? Having mixed cases causes a problem when people develop on Windows and don't check to make sure they have used the correct case in source files resulting in broken builds of Linux developers.

experimental mingw port of GCC4
by Thomas Weidenmueller 10 May '05

10 May '05

I spent some time doing a mingw port of GCC4 lately and here's my experimental mingw-special-reactos port for win32: http://www.reactsoft.com/mingw-special-reactos-20050510.zip The reactos tree fully compiles from rev. 15198 on and appears to work fine. However, please read notes.txt inside the archive to get it to work properly (default paths are messed up, so you have to set up three environment variables). Compiling reactos with it will produce quite a bunch of warnings, mostly from 3rd party libraries (e.g. oskittcp, mesa32), the imported wine code and explorer. Best Regards, Thomas
