Setup does more than just extract the packages into the Cygwin directory tree. The best way to handle it is to put the cache directory tree that the setup.ini and the archive files were downloaded to by setup.exe somewhere visible to your target machine (e.g., network share or CDROM) and then run setup.exe and install from that local directory. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
