You could try the cygwin.com site looking for setup-legacy.exe this is the old cygwin 1.5 setup still active but unsupported. It may contain the perl version you want. No promised, I don't have 1.5 installed anymore, and dont have the time to look in the archive for you, but thats where I'd start. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
