                 Recently, i have encountered the need to check the
validity of the
                 default utilities that installed with cygwin  (like
grep, find ,etc.)
                 and i am wondering if is there a way to obtain and compare md5
                 checksum for all of these utilities.

             setup*.exe verifies packages' md5sums against a gpg-signed listing
             (setup.ini) before installing.

       Thanks for your replay. Where could i find setup.ini file?
       I didn't find it in the program folders tree nor in the setup exe itself.

        look in the temporary download folder


Thank you very much Yaakov & marco! It was indeed there.
