Hi.  I am trying to install Cygwin on a vmware fusion virtual machine and
unlike any other program on the vm the setup.exe thinks it has no internet,
so it won't download the mirrors list nor if I type in one by hand will it
get any information.

This happens even if all firewalls are turned off.

Here is the setup.log.full from the last run.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks.
