Hi,

Apparently, a man page for hostid.1 already exists since 2001.
My questions therefore are:
1) Is the corresponding command available within cygwin? If so, in which
part?
2) How can I find out whether some tools/commands are available under
cygwin in a deterministic way without downloading and installing
everything? E.g. the website http://cygwin.com/ doesn't appear to have a
search function for this purpose.

Any hints would be highly appreciated!
