Oh, I didn't follow such a topic 'cause I'm very busy for some months. # and stil now :-( Proxying is FAQ for Windows users, I think. I made 'tsocks.c' as tiny library file without depending specific application program. Actually I'm using it with cvs, rsync and subversion. But it is made only for satisfying my use. So it is not enough functionality and not sophisticated way. If you think it is usefull, I'll contribute it and help as possible. P.S. I'm using cvs since about 1.10 until now built with standard way like: $ sh ./configure && make Now I have no major problem with this binary on my use. So I don't recognize what matter should be considered for cygwin porting. --- Regards, Shun-ichi Goto R&D Group, TAIYO Corp., Tokyo, JAPAN -- 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/
