> I can run setup.exe to update my installed Cygwin packages, but it is
an interactive process.  Is there a good way to automate this from a

I cannot currently get at the shortcut I have in may startup folder, but

setup -D -s
ftp://ftp.choose.a.site.listed.on.the.mirrors.page.org/pub/cygwin/whatev
er -R c:\cygwin -q -n
