Re: Cygwin Download


FWIW, I installed cygwin on Adv Server XP beta 2 a couple of days ago,
and it's running a multi-day 4 processor MPI Fortran/C analysis right
now.  My server box has no connection to the internet, so I installed by
first copying the cygwin setup directory recently updated from
mirrors.rcn on my laptop and running install from local directory,
invoking setup via "Run As" shortcut in order to gain privilege.
Cygwin's parallel make works just fine with proprietary compilers and
MPI libraries off the net.  What would I do without cygwin?
