To: Jose Luis Otermin , "Carey R. Dayrit" , cygwin AT cygwin DOT com In-Reply-To: <01bc01c1f7c1$8bf7b4a0$3b322ac8@ciudad.com.ar> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Jose, You need to execute "tar -jxvf cygipc-1.11-1.tar.bz2"... As for why cygipc isn't included in the official distro is explained on the cygutils website. It is being deprecated because there is work in progress on an official port of this in the latest cvs sources, called cygserver.exe.
