Oh, I didn't consider it might make a difference. The above snippet was captured with manual setting of "Use HTTP/FTP Proxy:". On my machine with setup.exe 2.457.2.2 and "Use IE5 Settings" the following request is made: GET http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/mirrors.lst HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: Cygwin Setup Host: sources.redhat.com Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive Regards mks -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
