RE: [ANNOUNCEMENT] New on sources: lynx-2.8.3-1


I have downloaded and installed lynx, but can't get it to work on my w2k
server machine/

I get the following error:

Looking up lynx.browser.org.
Making HTTP connection to lynx.browser.org.
Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host.

lynx: Can't access startfile http://lynx.browser.org/

I can however telnet to port 80 with no problem:

$ telnet lynx.browser.org 80
Trying 195.40.122.44...
Connected to lynx.browser.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
get a
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

</HEAD><BODY>
<H1>Bad Request</H1>
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.<P>
Invalid URI in request get a<P>
</BODY></HTML>
Connection closed by foreign host.

So, why is lynx not working?

I have uploaded version 2.8.3-1 of the terminal based internet
browser `lynx'.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your system.

Run setup and answer all of the questions.  The mirrors below have the
latest version of this package:

ftp://linux.sarang.net/mirror/development/compiler/cygwin/ (Korea)
ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/cygwin/ (UK)
ftp://ftp.sunsite.utk.edu/pub/cygwin/ (US)

Note that if this is the first time that you've run the new GUI version
of setup, it will currently download the whole cygwin net release again.
After this point it will only download what is needed.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list at:  cygwin@cygwin.com .  I would appreciate if you would
use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.  This includes
ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.
