I realize that it is bad manners to replya to your post, but I haven't got the hang of the gmane web interface, and I only noticed that other people have a proplem after I posted this. To answer the questions that where asked in that thread: * I downloaded the executable that is attached to the link on http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/setup.exe * I do not know what is the version of this executable. There is nothing obvious indicating a version in the executable itself. I checked through the dependency walker, ran ./setup.exe -version (and all the variants) but nothing was reported back. Running strings on it didn't help either. The best I can do is tell you the md5 checksum of the file I downloaded: $ md5sum.exe -b setup.exe 5a8fdffbb86feb3389704f25876b3afb *setup.exe Thanks again, George -- 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/
