Hi All,

I've had some issues running my locally modified script update script
too (from Linux).  I discovered that the problem in my case was that the
path to download the scripts from cvs had changed.  I may have missed
previous postings about this (call me slow if so)...

Correcting the urls that wget is fed seemed to solve the problem for me.
I think this was a sourceforge change, not an unattended change.

Hope that helps someone else.

By what you have written it seems this should be obvious, but I have searched 
the unattended information and cannot find any reference to having to set these 
variables in script-update before running that script.  The latest prepare 
script (that has wget in it) works just fine when run from the same location 
(/cygdrive/d/unattended-4.6/tools) so can you explain why the path would be 
different and/or how to set these variables correctly?
