I was trying to only download using setup.exe to a different directory than I was using previously. But since I already had Cygwin installed on my windows 2003 server, it didn't download anything I had already installed. I thought by selecting "download only" and then selecting "install" (at the top of the tree) for all packages, it would download everything to the new directory. But it just skipped over everything I already had installed. So when I tried to install on Vista over the network, things were missing. Thanks for the hint, Mark On Tue, Sep 9, 2008 at 2:30 PM, Larry Hall (Cygwin) wrote: > Mark Molinari wrote: >> >> Hello, >> >> I am trying to install Cygwin on Vista Ultimate 32 bit.
