- Bcc:
2 separate questions about customizing the list of mirror URLs in the cygwin
setup.exe program:
1) When adding a custom URL, what is the correct syntax to describe the path
to the cygwin pacakge directory? For instance, on an FTP accessible server I
have a directory in my home directory called "cygwin" which contains
setup.exe and setup.ini. Underneath that is the release directory which
contains all of the packages. I can browse the directory hierarchy in IE
with a URL that looks like "ftp://username:password@hostname/cygwin". I
tried entering that URL in the approriate place in setup.exe, clicked Add,
then selected it from the list and clicked "Next", but then got a message
saying is could not find setup.ini.
2) Once I've added a custom URL to the list of mirrors, how do I remove it?
Thanks.
