Dear Cygwin users,
I have installed Cygwin on few PC; To install Cygwin, I use graphical setup method to install vim, rsync and openssh packages.
Now I would like to install cron on all PC. Could I use SSH service and a command line to install cron package ?
How can manage Cygwin without go on all PC and reload Setup.exe.
My goal is to manage all my PC with my server via "dsh -f list.pc.txt -- aptitude -y install cron" or something like.
Is there an equivalent of aptitude or apt-tools ?
How to manage the cygwin distribution (update package list from repository and upgarde all cygwin)
I found Setup.exe options: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2003-03/msg00526.html
But I don't understand how manage list of packages.
Optional Question: Is there an official wiki for Cygwin project ?
Best regards.
Salokine.
