Hi Jason,
I tried all three of the URL's that
you provided. Both
http://mirrors.pdinc.us/setup.exe.gz
http://mirrors.pdinc.us/cygwin-htdocs/setup.exe
gave me a 'wget' process that seemed to
hang. I had to kill it after a few minutes.
They both yielded files in my directory that
have the correct names, but are empty.
The URL
http://cygwin.com/setup.exe?qww4032i498322398472398472389472389473249832749823
gave me a file of approximately 11.4 kBt.
I gave it a shorter name, and asked for an
md5sum:
$ md5sum setup.exe
f33b4c53b39485c1ecc528a95517534d *setup.exe
It is certainly not correct.
I thought this morning that this was
some piddly problem that would go away soon,
but I am apparently mistaken.
Can this be some kind of insidious
site-blocking that is being implemented by
the persons who manage network security for
my institution? My only good test will be
tonight when I arrive home to try the download
from my DSL-network.
