Hi There,

I was wondering if there was a way to save and duplicate my cygwin 
installation so I can replicate it on a different machine.  The idea is, 
I have scripts and programs developed and tested on my cygwin install. 
I want to be able to deploy everything that I am running on my machine.

I'm not sure if the setup.exe will get me what I want since older 
versions of packages are not always readily available (dependent on the 
server).  Also, I want to be able to provide the operations team with a 
zip file or some kind of installation package to replicate on each 
server.   The idea is to avoid  new downloads and use what I have until 
I need to upgrade.

thanks,

Jerome
