Hi,
Now I want to make a ftp mirror of cygwin, but I am not very clear
how to do it. Is there any tools or script to make this process
automatically? And I think there should be some tools to make the mirror
site up to date. I google for this but found nothing useful.
Any hint will be welc

For each host, netselect figures out the approximate ping time (though
not as accurately as ping does), the number of network "hops" to reach
the target, and the percentage of ping requests that got through sucâ
cessfully.

Well, it's not hard to bootstrap yourself. The base cygwin install is
currently 13.5MB to download,

This particularly affects C++ perl extensions, as perl.h includes

It's built with gcc, just like Cygwin itself and every Cygwin package.
It is however a mingw application, and does not depend on cygwin1.dll
for obvious reason

Hi,
I have successfully installed cygwin and its openssh package. I followed
the instruction about setting up sshd and it works as expected.
However this sshd service turns out to be a local service, which means I
can't get access to the net printers and the net file folders in an ssh
sessi
I know this isn't supposed to work unless the share is public. I'm
not concerned about security and want to do exactly that. I have done
it successfully under Samba by using share level security and setting
guest_ok for the sahre. What I can't seem to figure out is how to do
it under Windows XP

The installer can make a directory for new files even if there is
already an existing directory symlink of the same name.
I discovered the problem when upgrading where I had a custom X11 build.
I moved /usr/X11R6 to /usr/X11R6.dist, and made the symlink /usr/X11R6
-> /usr/X11R6.build. When upd

Anyone who wants to. If you mean who compiles the setup.exe binaries

What builds the setup.exe source?
I am interested in an option to prob all the servers and disable the ones that are
currently off line. Maybe even do a traceroute and sort by number of hops.
Or at least export the list so that a seperate utility could be used to pick a
server.

Hi,
A quick question, and I have a feeling this is asked
regularly, but I couldn't find an answer on searching
the forum.
How can I copy/paste to/from xterm to another xterm
windows and also how can I copy/paste to/from an xterm
window and a windows application like say notepad ?
Thanks !
Roy.
It would help if I actually attached the patch.
