It has been suggested that we keep the HEAD branch in sync with XFree86.org and that we do our development on another branch. The question here is whether cvsup can preserve a local branch of the code and still be used to sync with XFree86.org. I doubt that this is the case, since cvsup is essentially mirroring the files, not branches/tags/etc. Does this mean that we must manually track XFree86.org and apply their patches after the initial import? My suggestion is to import the current stable release into our CVS. With CVS we can later import the next release and merge all patches we have already commited. Fixing severe bugs is still an issue and might be solved by regulary importing the snapshots of the stable branch and by monitoring the XFree-commit list (I still read every posting on this list and would just pay more attention to security fixes) Mike Harris had a good point that we should grab XFree86's CVS tree with cvsup and use a perl script to change the root for all of the files. Then we have both the current version of all files *and* the history of all of those files. Note that this requires cvsupd to run on the server side ... do XFree86 already run cvsupd? If not, you may find it easier to ask them for a tarball of the CVSROOT to get going, and then something like cvsps (suggested by Mike below) to keep up to date. He suggested using cvsps to generate patch sets. He also suggested doing our development on a branch, keeping HEAD more or less in sync with XFree86.org CVS HEAD, and merge HEAD to our branch whenever required (to get bug fixes, etc.). I doubt that a complete mirror of the XFree86 CVS is a good solution since there is no way (at least I konw of none) to automaticly track changes in the XFree86 repository and commit them to ours too. So importing the whole repository is in my opinion a waste of space since we'd have to import all old revisions from the XFree repository too. I think Mike had a good point that it would be wise to have the history of each file in the tree... what do you think? I think this would be great ; it also allows the possibility of producing security-patched versions of older versions of XFree86, and the version history also provides a kind of documentation of the source David

Keyboard focus problem + scrambled icons in wmaker with latest release
Hello, I'm running the latest version of Cygwin, XFree and WindowMaker (from mirrors.rcn.net, but I also tried mirrors.sunsite.dk and mirrors.kernel.org) in my WinXP Pro workstation and I have the following problems: 1) when I move my mouse outside a xterm windows the keyboard focus is lost by that window and is re-taken when I get back to that window with the mouse pointer. It only happens with Cygwin-XFree's xterm, while if I launch, for example, HP-UX's xterm from a HP workstation or Cygwin's rxvt or Nedit it doesn't happen. This started to happen 1/2 weeks ago (consider that I constantly monitor the announce mailing lists of Cygwin and, hence, I make setup.exe run once every one/two days). I saw, from the list, that other people have this problem too. 2) this morning I ran setup and I downloaded the latest modifications to Xwinclip, XFree86-bin, etc. From that point on, some of the icons of wmaker are scrambled, in particular the icons that represents terminals and the icons of the Window Maker Preferences Utility, launching wmaker by hand (i.e. not as I usually do with a script that launces XWin and then wmaker) I get this errors on stderr: TIFFReadDirectory: Warning, /usr/X11R6/share/WINGs/Images.tiff: unknown field with tag 317 (0x13d) encountered.

I also tried to uninstall wmaker, to remove from my user's home the configuration files of wmaker (I renamed the ~/GNUstep dir) and to re-install wmaker but things haven't changed. Bye, Danilo Turina

I would appreciate it if you could help me to figure out what the real problem is here. The new XFree86-bin-4.3.0-7 package no longer contains cygfreetype-9.dll, as this library is now distributed as part of the freetype2/libfreetype26 package. freetype2 defines the version of the freetype2 library as '6' instead of the '9' that XFree86 was using as the library version. I added a copy of cygfreetype-9.dll to the XFree86-lib-compat package for those that need the old library. However, I want to know what application was failing in your xinit scripts. There should not be an application that requires cygfreetype-9.dll in the default script. Have you modified your script? What program are you launching that requires this DLL? Are you launching emacs? I would like to get any old applications that use cygfreetype-9.dll rebuilt. No, everything should be by default, except for my ~/.xinit file. I just erased that file, ran the installer again (it downloaded only 'libfontconfig1-2.2.0-1.tar.bz2' and 'libfreetype26-2.1.5-1.tar.bz2'), and it seems to work fine. It is very strange, since the setup.ini files from yesterday and today seem to be the same, and I did not selected nor deselected any option neither today nor yesterday. Well, I guess it is the people who make the setup.exe to blame. When I wrote 'that file', I was referring to 'cygfreetype-6.dll', i.e. a copy of 'cygfreetype-9.dll', not to my ~/.xinitrc.

Checking the mode key states within the X server will only indicate what the mi layer currently knows about the mode key states. The my layer would not know that there are messages in its queue that change the state of the mode keys. I also recall that there is a way to force the mi layer to process all input events (miProcessInputEvents ?) and that this could be called before querying the state of the mode key states in order to get a consistent result.

Re: Multiple Cygwins/ Distributing Cygwin apps
John Moore wrote: I installed Cygwin #1 on C: and Cygwin #2 on H:. I'll have to try the mount trick as the easy way to switch them. However, I don't think it will work when you first install Cygwin #2, as it will detect the keys and complain that a Cygwin is already present! If you unmount everything then there should be no registry keys to detect. It may also be necessary to change the Windows path (again, I don't know if the Cygwin installer did this or the vendor did it). 'Pure' cygwin doesn't mess with your Windows path at all. Instead, /etc/profile prepends the Cygwin paths to your Windows path. If both Cygwins do it this way there should be no conflict, as this method only sets the path for that bash session, it's not a global change. However, if this vendor's package adds the Cygwin paths to your Windows path then that could be a problem, but there's nothing that says you can't just undo that and set it in one of the bash startup files instead. Ran the tool manufacturer's install, telling it to put cygwin stuff on H. Somehow it decided that my cygwin home directory should be c:/documents and settings/username. You're not tied to what the installer makes it, you know. There are two places where the home directory is set: in one of the startup scripts (probably /etc/profile) where the HOME variable is set and exported, and the appropriate field in /etc/passwd, which is only really used by a few things. If you change both of these you can put your home directory whereever you please. Renamed the Cygwin paths in the registry to something else (put an X on the end). rebooted. Installed cygwin using the installer. It failed with a windows abort message about find.exe! You probably need to unmount, not just rename the paths. Otherwise setup.exe will be confused. tried a few utilities from cygwin. Got a complaint about having 2 cygwin1.dll's. As always, you must ensure that there's only one cygwin1.dll in the path at any given time, and that it's the correct one. If you remove all cygwin related things from the Windows path and then add the Cygwin paths in the bash startup scripts then this should be manageable. Everything worked except cvs, which failed in ssh client mode (against a server at the office) with a garbled message. This cvs.exe had worked before. This cygwin was from a cygwin grabbed by the nifty little unresizeable (grrr) utility within the last few days. The latest setup snapshots are resizeable, BTW. I will check and see if the vendor included the source to the tool (I doubt it, btw). But good grief, I shouldn't have to recompile the damn thing just to use it. What I would love to see is a complete procedure for doing this sort of thing posted in a cygwin FAQ. I don't think you will ever see this added to an official Cygwin FAQ because what you're doing is unsupported as heck. Your complaint should be with the vendor, really. Cygwin can hardly be responsible for a third party making some customized environment that locks you into some old version of the DLL. None of the Cygwin developers are going to want to touch this issue with a 10-foot pole. They support the setup.exe-blessed environment with the current packages from a sources.redhat.com mirror... Anything else and you're either on your own or you need to get support from the vendor. To expect the Cygwin developers to have any interest in debugging a 3rd party environment over which they have no control is asking a lot -- especially since they're such a mean bunch g. But seriously, you have to realize that this is a volunteer affair and that the people involved could care less how some 3rd party perverts the software, it's not their job. So, it's not surprising that there are not instructions anywhere on how to jerryrig two Cygwins, and that doing so is not exactly easy. It's not meant to be. It's not meant to be anything, really, it's just unsupported. Not that it's not possible, just that it's not a configuration that the official Cygwin folks care to deal with.

RE: Multiple Cygwins/ Distributing Cygwin apps
Okay, John: Blindly cutting through all the 'philosophical arguments' and getting to the crux of the matter. Yes, you CAN install several different cygwins (or anything else) onto ONE machine. Techniques like this have always (AFAIK) been used in the mainframe world but, for some reason, seem to get ignored for smaller machines. To be a little PC-specific: Have more than one hard drive on your PC, or partition up your hard drive into handy chunks. There are plenty of partitioning tools around - I prefer PowerQuest's 'Partition Magic'. Install your op system of choice into each of the hard drives or partitions separately, hiding one partition while installing into another. Unhide all partitions and use a boot manager to give you a multi-boot scenario - okay, I use PowerQuest's 'Boot Magic', but there's MANY other to choose from - even Micro$oft's ! ! ! Now boot into one copy of your op system to install and use one version of cygwin, then re-boot into the other copy of your op system to install and use a different version of cygwin. Points to note: When performing any 'Micro$oft software updates' - like 'service packs' - hide all but the partition you are working on until after the first re-boot past the installation. The Micro$oft installer is aggressive ! You'll find that you can use this technique to keep one, or more, windoze partitions relatively clean and uncluttered - leading to fewer problems with windoze (like a big, messy registry). You don't need to have multiple windoze licenses for this technique as there is just ONE user (you), ONE machine (yours) and you can only boot and run ONE copy of windoze at a time - the other(s) being legitimate 'backup' copies. Of course, this technique works for op systems other than just windoze. Hope the above is of use to you and helps get around the problem.

I have just spent many wasted hours because a vendor shipped a tool I have to have (customer mandate), tightly integrated with a cygwin that is old and has a buggy cvs. Meanwhile I am using another cygwin for another customer... the latest version. For me, the inability to install two cygwins that are independent has already cost me a bunch of time. When I grumbled to a friend, his answer was buy another machine for that application. This is a poor answer, but I may have to. Or I'll have to find what magic has to be switched to instantiate one and hide the other... something that is mentioned in some of the email I found, but no details were given. Cygwin is a great tool and it has this really neat installer so I can keep it up to date. But when a vendor ships a binary, that vendor must ship a binary Cygwin DLL, and there is no way it is going to match my latest version. This creates a problem. I have seen two basic reasons stated that more than one cygwin shouldn't be supported: 1) It's not an important problem 2) Tell the vendors to always ship the latest version of cygwin, with the implied therat of losing market share. 3) It's too hard or impossible to run two cygwins. Personally, I don't buy any of these. Of course, I haven't contributed to this project, but over the last 35 years I have designed a lot of systems in a lot of OS's (or designed the OS's). As to #1, that will become a self supporting prophecy if this situation continues. Either large numbers of folks will be using Cygwin, or they won't. Either vendors will be releasing Cygwin based products or they won't. If they do, and lots of people use Cygwin, it is an important problem. If it remains a problem, Cygwin usage will go down. After all, if I tell my vendor that I don't want their product because it is incompatible with my system, they don't care. They have lost one sale, but there are plenty of folks that are without Cygwin, so this is no big deal. If a vendor gets lots of complaints, he is going to go away from Cygwin. I wish my current vendor had just used Windows environment... then I wouldn't be facing this issue. #2 is ridiculous, pure and simple. Vendors aren't going to spend their time creating and support lots of version of their software just to stay in sync with Cygwin. And they are going to bundle cygwin because 99% of their customers don't have it, and the vendor wants to create an easy installation for this vast majority of their customers. #3 I don't believe either. I have heard the argument that a cygwin program needs to know which DLL to load and which registry entries to use, and that just isn't possible. But it is actually trivial. The DLL path searched starts where the cygwin application starts, so that is one way to separate DLL's. A single environment variable can define

I would have hoped that my intended offer of use of an Athlon 64 system would have counted as more than just 'idle curiosity' and, anyway, I'm never 'idle'. I interpreted your response as nonserious since you seemed to be humorously suggesting that we'd be working on a version of cygwin for linux, which is obviously nonsensical. I thought it was self evident that I was talking about getting cygwin working on a 64 bit version of windows and didn't seriously think that you were suggesting that we were thinking about getting cygwin working on some other system. I guess I was wrong. I didn't realise that 64-bit windoze was actually available as yet, so I guessed you were thinking of something else. Just because the 'Cygwin on Linux' bit was a joke (and a pretty obvious one at that), doesn't mean the rest wasn't serious. I notice someone else has mentioned 'Cygwin on Lindows', which I find even funnier. ROFL BTW My plan was to either test for you (under direction) or make the machine available to you via some sort of terminal server and my ADSL connection. I didn't fancy having it transported. I did actually want to contribute something to the cygwin project, as I've found it so valuable over the past couple of years. Shame you weren't interested. Actually, while I appreciate that you wanted to contribute something, I'm not interested in either scenario. The effort of working on cygwin remotely either by having someone else do testing (especially when the someone doesn't really know cygwin internals) or by logging in over the internet was not what I was looking for. Having a system sitting in my office that I could hack on when the mood hit me was more of what I was looking for. I know from experience that working remotely via M$ terminal server and an ADSL line is close enough to being on the machine itself as to make negligible difference in most cases. Maybe not with cygwin - I'll give it a try. I wasn't seriously suggesting that anyone was going to send me a 64-bit system, either. I get the felling that you are not exactly 'local' to me, or I'd have been considering lending one for a while. Here's the kind of google search term I would have used to find discussion: 64-bit windows cygwin site:cygwin.com cgf This was my first tray and it unearths some discussion as the first hit. I'm sure that there are search refinements possible but, to answer your aggrieved question, all of the discussions basically revolve around someone reporting that cygwin doesn't work right in some beta or release candidate version of windows for 64 bit platforms and my suggesting that the problem won't be solved until I (or Corinna or Pierre) have a 64 bit system to hack on. When I have a 64-bit Windoze installed on one of my systems I'll let you know.

setreuid: permission denied for sshd under non-system account
Hi, I have installed the cygwin port of openssh on a Win2k box and set up passwordless authentication using .ssh/id_rsa and .ssh/authorized_hosts in the normal way. Everything works fine and I can ssh to the Windows box without a password. My problem arises when I change the user that runs the sshd service. Following Corrina's instructions, I set up a local user (sshsvc) as a member of the Administrators group and have given that user the following user rights: Act as part of operating system. Create a token object. Replace a process level token. Log on as a service. After setting the ownership of the /etc/ssh*, /var/empty (when using privaledge separation) and /var/log/sshd.log I can start the service. With the client and server in debug mode I try to connect and the client appears to log in, but immediately logs back out again. The server log shows that a call to permanently_set_uid is followed by a call to setreuid, which fails with 'permission denied'. I guess that this is Windows refusing to allow the sshsvc user to switch to the real user that i'm trying to log in as. I was lead to believe from the docs and from Corinna's posts that the user rights settings would have dealt with this problem, but they don't. What am I doing wrong here? Any help is appreciated.

Re: OpenGL and Cygwin
My g++ command line is g++ -mno-cygwin -lglut32 -lglu32 -lopengl32 and a cygcheck on my exe file indicated that the glut file being linked is my local copy that I got from nvidia, Can you tell us why you are using GLUT from NVDIA instead of GLUT from Cygwin's OpenGL package? The reason I was using Nvidia's glut is because they have a more recent version of it (glut 3.7 I believe) than the stated version that cygwin provides. I recognize that this may cause weird unsupported problems, so I tried both versions, and get the same behaviour (success/failure) whichever one I use. As for using extgl to do dynamic loading, that works fine: I now can successfully compile my code. It still doesn't run :), but given the complexity of the program I am running, I am not sure where exactly the problem is or if it is a cygwin error. The error itself comes from cygwin: the error message states: 61 [unknown (0x48)] ? 3804 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve space for cygwin's heap (0x6160 0x0) in child, Win32 error 487 and follows by giving some state info about the stack etc. As I said, I don't quite know if this is my problem or cygwin's. All I have to go on is that the same code works under linux and g++. I will play around with some simpler versions of the code: if this error message comes from some familiar mistake that I'm making, I'd be grateful to hear it. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Take 2: Testers for new ssh-*-config scripts wanted!
Hi,
I'd like to ask for more testing of the new ssh-host-config and
ssh-user-config scripts.
The new thing here is, that the ssh-host-config script now tries to
figure out if the machine is a 2003 Server or newer system. If so,
the script asks, if it should create a new account sshd_server
to use as account to run sshd as service under. If you say yes at
this point, a bunch of funny new activities is started:
- The script creates a sshd_server account
- It adds that account to the administrators group *iff* it's able
to figure out the name of that group from the /etc/group file.
This means, you must not change the name of the administrators
group in /etc/group and the SID (S-1-5-32-544) must be available
in that entry.
- It uses the new editrights utility to add the necessary user rights
to the new sshd_server account.
These rights also explicitely deny logon locally and over network
and allow logon only as service for security reasons.
The ssh-user-config script has also been changed. It tries to
figure out if the machine is a 2003 Server or newer and if so, it
sets the permissions of the users ~/.ssh directory and the users
~/ssh/authorized_keys file so that the sshd_server account has read
permissions on both. If it's an older system, it does the same for
the SYSTEM account.
Also on 2003, the sshd_server account is used for ownership of the
important files (/etc/ssh*, /var/empty, /var/log/sshd.log).
Further changes:
- Require bash for both scripts.
- Use `read -e' in both scripts to enable readline support.
So, I'd like to ask especially users of a 2003 Server system to test
that script. Users of other systems are of course also welcome since
I want to be sure that I haven't broken these systems.
Attached are both scripts plus the vanilla ssh_config and sshd_config
file. The latter two have to be copied to /etc/defaults/etc. Please
not that the editrights tool has to be installed on your system.
You can find it in the Base category when updating with setup.exe.
Thanks in advance,
Corinna

RE: Multiple cygwins/ Distributing cygwin apps
I think there is a point here, which often applies to those of us with end user clients to support. It is the client's choice as to which version of any particular software they have installed, not ours to dictate. We might advise that they move to latest versions, but they might counter that with arguments such as waiting for bugs to be fixed and security / compatibility to be fully tested and proven before they migrate. Some of our clients might like to keep pace with the latest developments, while others might prefer to stick with the tried and tested versions as long as possible. It's their choice. If we refuse to support anything but latest versions then we just lose out on most of our work opportunities. The fact that we have to support a software installation which contains an old version of something doesn't necessarily mean that the software is currently distributed with that same old version. It means that it is currently in use with the old version, which might have been distributed and installed some time ago. Meanwhile, we have to support them - which often involves building a system for ourselves which mimics theirs in behaviour, and therefore in software versions too. Some can afford to go to the lengths of dedicating a machine to each build. My preference is to dedicate one hard drive or partition to each build. Anyway, the whole point is that those of us involved in third-party support often have to cope with different versions of a piece of software at the same time. There are various ways of achieving this. I just illustrated one of them.

Hi, I'd like to ask for more testing of the new ssh-host-config and ssh-user-config scripts. The new thing here is, that the ssh-host-config script now tries to figure out if the machine is a 2003 Server or newer system. If so, the script asks, if it should create a new account sshd_server to use as account to run sshd as service under. If you say yes at this point, a bunch of funny new activities is started: - The script creates a sshd_server account - It adds that account to the administrators group *iff* it's able to figure out the name of that group from the /etc/group file. This means, you must not change the name of the administrators group in /etc/group and the SID (S-1-5-32-544) must be available in that entry. - It uses the new editrights utility to add the necessary user rights to the new sshd_server account. These rights also explicitely deny logon locally and over network and allow logon only as service for security reasons. The ssh-user-config script has also been changed. It tries to figure out if the machine is a 2003 Server or newer and if so, it sets the permissions of the users ~/.ssh directory and the users ~/ssh/authorized_keys file so that the sshd_server account has read permissions on both. If it's an older system, it does the same for the SYSTEM account. Also on 2003, the sshd_server account is used for ownership of the important files (/etc/ssh*, /var/empty, /var/log/sshd.log). Further changes: - Require bash for both scripts. - Use `read -e' in both scripts to enable readline support. So, I'd like to ask especially users of a 2003 Server system to test that script. Users of other systems are of course also welcome since I want to be sure that I haven't broken these systems. Attached are both scripts plus the vanilla ssh_config and sshd_config file. The latter two have to be copied to /etc/defaults/etc. Please not that the editrights tool has to be installed on your system. You can find it in the Base category when updating with setup.exe.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated Cygwin Package: proftpd-1.2.9-1
New News: === I have updated the version of ProFTPD to 1.2.9-1. The tarballs should be available on a Cygwin mirror near you shortly. Old News: === ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus toward simplicity, security, and ease of configuration. It features a very Apache-like configuration syntax, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory visibility. See the ProFTPD home page for more details: http://www.proftpd.org/ Please read the README file: /usr/share/doc/cygwin/proftpd-1.2.9.README since it covers requirements, installation, known issues, etc. To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Germany, ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is usually pretty good. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. The setup.exe program will figure out what needs to be updated on your system and will install newer packages automatically.

RE: Printable information in executables
From: Alex Vinokur
Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 6:05 AM
Executable files contain various printable information.
For instance, list of used DLLs.
However those files contain neither compiler name nor compiler version.
It seems to be worth including something like gcc version 3.3.1
(cygming special) in executables.
Next question. Is it possible to add 'user related printable
information' to executables (through compilation option or something
else)?
The answer depends on how you plan to use that information.
The simplest form is just to declare a static string (char array), making
sure that the compiler doesn't remove it at optimization. (Hmm...? Is it
enough to do some dummy reference to it?)
This gives a simplified image of the true heuristics but anyway;
on the old AmigaOS they use(d) something like:
$ cat chk.c
int main() {
char versionstring[]=$VER: name major.minor (date) extended_info;
return 0;
}
$ for (( n=0; n4; n++ )) do
gcc -O$n chk.c;
echo -n $n:;
strings a.exe | grep '$VER: ';
done
0:$VER: name major.minor (date) extended_info
1:$VER: name major.minor (date) extended_info
2:$VER: name major.minor (date) extended_info
3:$VER: name major.minor (date) extended_info
Hmm... :-} it doesn't get removed by plain optimization... :-)

gtk on cygwin
Hi all, I'm trying to compile Lopster on cygwin (I don't want to port it, but to emulate on cygwin). Lopster requires gtk. Gtk have also a win32 version.

RE: CJK on mutt
I plan to move to mutt as my email client. However, I find the mutt of cygwin can not handle CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) characters correctly -- they are displayed as s. Since I am running cygwin on a Simplified Chinese version of Windows 2000 box, I put the following in my .muttrc: set locale=zh_CN charset-hook !utf-8 gb2312 but nothing changed, s are still s. Anyone here use CJK too? Can you resolve this problem? Do other Cygwin apps support such character sets? -- Gary R.

Clean installed and Bash marked not executable
I did a clean install of the latest cygwin and for some bizarre reason /usr/bash(.exe) is marked not executable after the installation. This causes a problem with openssh because when an incoming session comes it tries to run bash and finds it not executable and will reject the login with a cryptic message. Only by turning on debug mode for sshd in the windows registry and looking at the sshd log did I finally figure out it was the bash not executable problem. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Updated Cygwin Package: proftpd-1.2.9-1
New News: === I have updated the version of ProFTPD to 1.2.9-1. The tarballs should be available on a Cygwin mirror near you shortly. Old News: === ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus toward simplicity, security, and ease of configuration. It features a very Apache-like configuration syntax, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory visibility. See the ProFTPD home page for more details: http://www.proftpd.org/ Please read the README file: /usr/share/doc/cygwin/proftpd-1.2.9.README since it covers requirements, installation, known issues, etc. To update your installation, click on the Install Cygwin now link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Germany, ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is usually pretty good. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. The setup.exe program will figure out what needs to be updated on your system and will install newer packages automatically. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.
