Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2003 11:43:07 -0500 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 17 Jan 2003 16:43:07.0867 (UTC) FILETIME=[838AEAB0:01C2BE47] Note-from-DJ: This may be spam 2 separate questions about customizing the list of mirror URLs in the cygwin setup.exe program: 1) When adding a custom URL, what is the correct syntax to describe the path to the cygwin pacakge directory? For instance, on an FTP accessible server I have a directory in my home directory called "cygwin" which contains setup.exe and setup.ini. Underneath that is the release directory which contains all of the packages. I can browse the directory hierarchy in IE with a URL that looks like "ftp://username:password AT hostname/cygwin". I tried entering that URL in the approriate place in setup.exe, clicked Add, then selected it from the list and clicked "Next", but then got a message saying is could not find setup.ini. 2) Once I've added a custom URL to the list of mirrors, how do I remove it? Thanks. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
