Apologies if this is a much asked question. I did not find it in an archive search nor in the FAQ.
I'd like to use Cygwin at work but am not allowed to install any software on my computer (Windows 2000 Compaq laptop) nor am I likely to get permission to run any of that hated (virus prone, pornography related, system crashing, etc.) free software. So I'd like to set up a Cygwin installation on a CD-ROM for use when needed. I don't need too much, mostly just some networking utilities (tcpdump especially) and python along with bash to give me a useful shell and to keep me from getting that "Command not found" error every time I type in "ls". I know I'm skirting the limits of the law here but honestly would you like to explain why you need Cygwin to a "system administrator" who doesn't know what FTP means? Thanks for the help.
