Hello list,

I updated a brief guide to cygwin on my website.

"Setting up 'cygwin' as a UNIX shell script editing environment on Windows."

http://poff.sixbit.org/content/cygwin

All the information is gleaned from faqs/man pages and experience.

I resolved to using the win32 binary of bind through cygwin, which
works fine. I saw some success has been found through compiling
bind-9, but installing binaries is probably easier. Not sure if this
is "bad technique" though, to mix and match cygwin/windows binaries.

If anyone has any +/- comments then feel free to contact me.

Thanks

Amadeus
